Anyone Using "Cards" ?
I am & it rocksorz!
OK, it's for iPhone so I hafta 2X the screen, but this matters not.
Supereasy to use & a myriad of ways to customize the many templates for ALL occasions.
It's only $3 a card, so just to see how it works & looks, I start playing around with it & I send myself a card.
Apple says I'll get it next week.
They even email you to tell you when the person gets it.
Suh-weet!

yeah I'm not sure what that is all about. Maybe they need the higher quality camers to get good results. Or maybe the use case is expected to be impulsive and at the time of capture.

You know I was tempted to do that myself! Pathetic in a way.

I sent one to myself too.
I see this .... > " 'Cards' Disappoints" -- MacWorld
I don't happen to agree, but the usually gregarious MacWorld, of all people, has this out there, so ....
Pictures on the morrow.
First up ?
The envelope ....
Next, the front of the card ....
Finally, the inside of the card ....
One word of "warning": Apple, being the consumate professionals they are, use the "Make It Look Bigger Than It Is In The Picture" method.
The cards are a little smaller than I thougt & the "cotton paper" really isn't all that big of a deal.
Any greeting card I buy feels pretty much the same way.
Verdict: I like the product & I'm gonna use it this year for all of my Holiday greetings.
I'll GOOGLE Image a bunch of season-centric pictures, copy 'em to my iPad 2 & use 'em in "Cards".
Suh-weet !!!

Sounds like a reasonable deal. Mass-produced greeting cards are often in the $3-$5 range. For this, you design your own (I think?), and you get it printed, addressed, stamped and mailed for $3.
Not so cheap...
That's all you have? Really? Okay. No one will ever use it again, then.

I don't know when the last time you want to a CVS or Hallmark to buy a card was, but $3 isn't bad at all. Remember, mailing your own entails a stamp that costs nearly $0.50 on its own.

I'm curious how many they have to sell a year to make it profitable. If someone presented this to me as a business opportunity, doing all that for just $3, I'd be yelling "next!". I'm sure it can be made profitable given a significant investment for automation, but that would mean having a large volume to back that up too. I expect that Apple subs out the mechanical part to a printing company that already has the hardware, but at any rate, but it's hard to get upset at such a low price.
