The FunFab is a neat little product that's apparently not ready for prime time. The concept is simple enough: a digital photo frame with a built-in printer. Pick an image you like on-screen, hit a button and bang, you've got a hard copy.
But as you can see in this demo, the device does not adhere to WYSIWYG (or the product photo) and appears to crop images, which is plain to see despite the demonstrator's lame attempt to hide the cropped edge with her hand.
We also wonder why it prints upside down--would it be that difficult to rotate the printing mechanism, or the display, 180 degrees? We know there's no logical reason why the image has to be printed in the same orientation as the on-screen image, but any other way just doesn't make visual sense. We lament this kind of lack of attention to design detail. Get it together, FunFab!

At most, its a printer slapped on the a digital frame, nothing more.
