Samsung PL90 Digital Camera Has Builtin USB Connector
I’m not sure if I’m a fan of this or not, but it looks like a good idea. With the new Samsung PL90 digital camera, you don’t have to look for a USB cable to transfer your pictures to your computer, you just flip out the built in connector and plug it in.
What I want to know is how is the USB connector going to hold up over time with the camera hanging in midair while plugged into your desktop computer? The USB also charges the battery (this takes a long time, USB doesn’t provide a large amount of power), so plan on having your camera hanging off the front of your computer quite often.
Also… it’s a Samsung so it’s not that great of a camera to begin with. Take the $150 for this camera and get a Canon, Panasonic or Sony instead.
