Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"We need a digital camera that can be switched on and fire off that first shot fast. It's not a commonly tracked statistic on any review site, and nobody seems to have this information for every camera. We were hoping other readers could inform us as to what small digital cameras can fire off their first pics in under a second (ideally under half a second). It needs to be small, but mostly, just really quick in operation. Thanks!"
I have one of these and it's pretty nifty albeit cheaply constructed. My friend here laughed however and said it's some 25cent piece of junk that they have all over Taiwan. It's a buddhist thing apparently. Anyhow, the novelty wears off pretty quickly - like OK, now that you've spent 3 minutes playing with this what do you do with it? And why does every press release and article insist on mentioning Alan Bishop and Brian Eno? I'm shocked this has been making the rounds for so long. Can you imagine BoingBoing doing some big Pez announcement and then having it end up on Engadget like the next big thing?
