Who would spend $1200 to take crappy cell pics and auto upload them to a website.

You could probably do the same thing with an old Linux box and a decently written script.]]>Sep 27th 2007 8:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/Sep 28th 2007 1:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/Sep 27th 2007 7:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/
Then companies sell them overpriced hardware... with the right software running on it. So sad. They may just be the same people who buy phones, game consoles, DVD players, XM/Sirius subscriptions...

PC's can do everything, as long as you have the right software and peripherals. You know, maybe people don't trust them because of windows. What has Microsoft done to our society? Using the instability of their OS to sell XBOXes?]]>Sep 27th 2007 7:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/Sep 28th 2007 12:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/
@Matt - I'd really like to see a link to your solution that took you no longer than 10 minutes. Last time I checked, it takes about 10 minutes just to download, install and configure Apache. Was your solution perhaps using an online service that you were able to post your cell phone pictures to?

If you think this is overpriced, then please produce a pre-configured product to sell to people that does that same thing.

I think that this is a product that is the first to market at a time when a lot of people are looking for this functionality. Personally, I am seriously considering purchasing one.]]>Sep 28th 2007 12:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/Sep 28th 2007 12:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/Sep 28th 2007 12:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/Sep 28th 2007 12:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/
The FoxBox is clearly not targeted towards individuals who want to post cell phone images to their blog. This product is targeted towards application developers who are somewhere in the middle of individual hackers and enterprise applications. It's targeted towards people who want to get a small-medium application up and running for the general consumption of the public users. It's meant to get you beyond the prototype stage of your application.

In any case, I'm all in favour of hacking together many different approaches to get stuff to work. Just don't discredit this product by trying to imply that your 10 minute solution would fit everyone's needs.]]>Sep 28th 2007 1:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/27/kdev-intros-cameraphone-friendly-foxbox-mms/Oct 2nd 2007 9:26AM
