braille. cool. for the blind people that are taking pictures of cool stuff they see, and the cool places they found using the GPS

[rocketlonscher]

Yes, he does look like a YOUNG Janet Reno. But, more importantly, he smells like an OLD Janet Reno.

nothing? why are we talking about blind ppl

[cyborgtroy]

Via Bluetooth.

[ghostofmccleve]

That really is incredible. But something really bugged me about his description.

Braille...on a digital camera? Really?

[SilkSwe]

I wish they would launch it outside of US. :(

[Color1377]

ooo so the braille is for when the blind person wants to take a picture of his colorful gps while driving to the supermarket to upload to his flickr account.

Makes perfect sense

[ManiacalLyricist]

what the fuck would a blind person do with this device?

[CrotchShower]

braille...if you need braille you're blind, if you are blind you can't see the screen...

[kalijasin]

a hacker could have lots of fun with this thing.

[r2wd240]

Brilliant.  I... Think....

[rocketlonscher]

Braille? Oh, so that blind people don't confuse their GPS color screen with their camera! (They won't make the configuration mistake that Mr Gadget Geek made !)
