A 'Blaster named Stephanie emailed me today to let me know of a 'Blaster that she placed on eBay for auction. Considering that they come up fairly rarely, here's a link to her auction.
Bidding is starting at a very reasonable $25. Good luck and happy 'Blasting. I hope that PB finds a happy new home, Stephanie!

PhotoBlaster for auction
GoPhoto Inc is no more?
A quick search appears to show that GoPhoto Inc. may be gone, at least, their old domain name is gone and parked by a domain host, with no more landing page.
I wonder what happened?
Interestingly enough, Amazon still appears to have the X-Treme Pix camera on sale from GoPhoto for $89.95.
Here was the old product page on the web site, I was able to grab this out of Google's cache:
The Wayback Machine doesn't show a whole lot for GoPhoto, their site is not too functional that way. Too bad.
At least I captured the PDF cut sheet for the camera when I could.
I recall that I discovered this back around February 2009, because I ordered one via Amazon on February 27, 2009. I got it, and saw that it was exactly like the PhotoBlaster. Cool! So I ordered another two on August, 10 2010 via Amazon.com as well, just in case...GoPhoto disappeared. And now they have. I wonder how many were produced, and how many they actually sold?
All very good questions. I may need to contact the President and CEO, Jerry W. Perry to get the skinny. I was able to locate some contact information for him on both LinkedIn and Facebook.
