Camera with built-in games. Cory Doctorow:
The Fujifilm FinePix V10 is a 5 megapixel camera that also comes with built-in games. I've often wondered why the camera in my pocket -- which has a fast processor, a big beautiful screen, and a four-way rocker-switch -- doesn't come with a couple thousand video-games, given its capacious memory. Now we're seeing the start of it. But it's pretty thin -- I want a MAME camera that'll play every game ever made.
While the value of these games -- which include a Space Wars title and a version of Breakout -- is debatable, the camera, a little over six ounces and less than an inch thick, is no slouch. The V10 has a three-inch L.C.D. screen and a 3.4-times optical zoom lens, and it can digitally zoom up to 5.7 times. It will cost $349 when it is released in March.

Update: Ask and ye shall receive: here's MAME running on a big old Kodak digital camera -- (Thanks, Alex!)
