I saw in Wal-Mart a Barbie (by Mattel) digital camera with editing software for $60. The box was sealed, so I couldn't get any info on the camera specs other than it holds 6 pictures. Included is the PC serial cable. Naturally, the examples on the box show photo quality. I thought this might be a reasonable cheap way to get digital photos, but carrying around a camera with a pink flower on the front of it doesn't appeal to me.

The QUESTION is: has anyone seen anything like this for sale elsewhere? I have a hard time believing that Mattel would be making this on their own. (Of course, they DID make M-1 carbines....)

Any info would be appreciated! Thanks!

I have seen it in stores too. The resolution is something like 320x240..which is not good. But if all u want is to post small pics on the web..then it is fine..but not for print outs at all. Yes it is cheap..but what about that flower? maybe ductape..hehe. seeya
