Cute article about a camera for kids but there's more to this than meets the eye as the Kidizoom does video as well as take stills in a form factor kids can work with. As discussed in the Everything's Alive talk, the notion of buying a camera that could only take stills would begin to go away in five years as full resolution high def video (1920X1080) images can size up to 5"X7" hard copy without a problem. With this in mind, the Kidizoom, like Negroponte's XO, portend the future of multi function devices that are cheap, rugged and use low power, characteristics that are not here today but soon will be.
