Help mom digitize her old memories

John Chan | May 09, 2008

For the woman who gave you life this Mother's Day, help her keep all her old memories with the Photograph to Digital Picture Converter from Hammacher Schlemmer. Looking a little like a small paper shredder, this device lets you feed in photographs which will then be converted into a format you can edit on a Windows PC.

We know what you are thinking--a sub-S$100 scanner can do exactly the same thing. But honestly, we don't think anyone will relish trying to teach their mom how to use a flatbed scanner and Photoshop Elements for resize and touch-ups. This solution is much simpler, even though it costs more at about US$150.

There's one caveat. We suggest you go hide or destroy those old Polaroids of yourself as a little child with your pee-pee exposed. Once your mom gets her hand on this product, you can be sure your most embarrassing moments will suddenly be available on the Internet for all to see.
