Default polaroid comeback?

I found this article, thought it might be interesting to those who love the idea of instant photos or even those with old polaroids at home since it seems the polaroid instant film will be available for a while at least. Expensive though.

Have a look : Polaroid SX-70 cameras from the 1970s make a comeback

I remember seeing a new polaroid in a tv crime drama (Chase?). I was like "wtf is THAT?". I couldn't believe they were trying to bring back Polaroid. What's next, 110 cartridges? Pretty funny.

We had an semi-instant camera at one point, I think it was an old Polaroid 180 - It folded up in a box and had some bellows. The film was different though. It spit out, but there was a little timer with it, and you pulled the film and backing apart when the time ran out. I forget how you determined how long to set the timer for. But it was nothing like the push and forget polaroids.Never had one of those.
