Yeah...Epson sold like 300, 320 of those things!
Similarly, where is any mention of the Nikon CoolPix 900, or 950, or 990 models? The swivel-body Nikon 9xx series cameras marked the first real penetration of 'affordable' digital camera ownership and actual use among the prosumers and the people who, back in the very late 1990's and early 2000's, were actually driving the relatively young "web" and the then-fairly-new "internet".
The way I recall things is that Polaroid had one of the first digital cameras that actually captured any significant mindshare among the industry elites, the people who wrote the magazine articles and who coded and filled the web pages we used to read, but that Polaroid was around $1,999 for a low-Megapixel and only so-so camera. Those early digital cameras were not that good; the Nikon CoolPix 900 changed perception in a HUGE way...again, I think in many ways, the CoolPix 9xx models were literally critical developments in the digital still camera industry because they had significant mindshare. They were the first digital cameras that most professional photographers bought.
