well, to be honest..i think only the “ZINK Mix” does a little justice to be in the first few..as the pape itself wud be expensive..n wud be a stuff to flaunt arnd..so makes sense richie rich kids gettin another additional gadget to dock their iPhone/ipod with..

well, then to be honest what different nyone else has done..aprt from (trying) makin good lookin form.. :/

I am pretty sure a more generic version of MiniGiant idea was patented over 10 years ago. And it was extensively covered in a tech press at that time.

Basically the printer is aware of its position and orientation at all times and it keeps track what has been printed so far, so it knows what needs to be printed now. Conceptually simple, VERY hard to implement.
