Walgreens PureDigital Camera Hacked

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the photos-on-the-cheap dept.

Powercntrl writes "While the Ritz version of the PureDigital single-use camera was recently hacked, the Walgreens version wasn't - until now. Codeman, the same guy who brought us the I-Opener hack, found a way to add a standard Smartmedia interface to the Walgreens camera and extract images with a standard Smartmedia reader. Links to sample images showing the camera's quality are included."

    Let's suppose someone decided to turn around and sue you or something for manipulating their product, something small like this... Could cost you a pretty penny in legal fees. Or... say it takes you what a couple hours, couple of dollars to pull this `hack` off... For what in all honesty other than to say `look what I did`. Come one now... Digital cameras are dirt cheap. Not to rag on the `hacker', but let's get real what true purpose does this serve?

    I'm not trying to troll around, nor put anyone's `work' down, but I'm trying to think of any value this may have and sadly I see none. Now had he said something really productive like he hacked the camera to make every pic to be Angelina Jolie, or some other sexpot, then I'd work with him...

    Walgreens expects that you'll return them to get your pictures "processed"

    Your pictures are processed here...

      Ugh... If that was your point, just FSCKING LINK DIRECTLY TO IT! It would have been funny if you linked to http://goatse.cx/. However, since you linked to http://tinyurl.com/4ui, YOU FAIL IT!

      Moderators, do something about this poor excuse for an AC.

      Anyway, I thought that you'd get a photo CD and a pack of prints, a la 35mm. Can anyone confirm this?
