Digital Foci’s Photo Book vs Netbook
Exactly one year ago, Digital Foci Photo Book would be tempting. It is a combination memory card reader and displays, with – essential for any serious photographer – RAW support.
But when we look at the data we see that it is at every turn by a surpass Netbook. The 8 “display is smaller, the paltry 4GB of internal memory is obviously not enough – all my cameras have at least a 4 GB card in the interior. Worse still, the battery life you can not even beat a full Netbook. It only takes 2 , 5 hours.
In fact, only the benefits of portability and price. The photobook will hit stores in May this year. A Netbook is about twice as high, but can do so much more. And as Joel at Boing Boing Gadgets points out, RAW support is a constantly shifting target. This is the reason why Adobe and Apple are always updating their photo software only to continue with new cameras.
