This initial application of this camera is to satisfy the public’s insatiable desire for celebrity images. When told about this new camera, Paris Hilton immediately ordered two. “It’s all about numbers,” Paris said. “Now I can have even more photos of myself.” Other celebrities are expected to follow her lead, with sales eventually trickling down to the large population of self-absorbed American teenagers.
