Crippled "disposable" digital camera hacked and improved

The Walgreens-branded PureDigital camera is a "disposable" digital cam, requiring that you bring the device to a Walgreens to have your pix "developed" (printed and/or exported). A hacker has cracked the device, so that you can add Smartmedia memory and export pictures to your PC at home, reusing the camera.

you will see there is a daughter board on there with the nand flash for picture storage ..

if you remove that board you can add a smartmedia socket and using smartmedia card you will

be able to get the pics with a smartmedia reader standard jpg's but it will not do more that

25 pics still (think its using fat12)..
