This review has an interesting history. Back at the end of January, Polaroid sent a note to TUAW requesting that we ask our readers to join in asking Apple to support Bluetooth printing from the iPhone. Polaroid had a very good reason for doing this, since the iPhone is a phenomenally successful smartphone. Those millions of iPhone users would make a very good market for Polaroid's new PoGo Instant Mobile Printer, a tiny pocket-sized photo printer that prints out 2" x 3" borderless prints.I asked Polaroid if we could test a PoGo for our readers who don't own iPhones, and also to see how it works with the Mac.

However, it might be games of a more casual nature that will really make or break the platform. iPhone and iPod touch games have been a breakout category in the iTunes App Store. Case in point: Just this week, Ngmoco got $10 million in its Series B round of funding.
