Hm, we had two different models of the Polaroid Palette. Neither needed
special software, they just took the video output (they understand
plain analog RGB) and there they went. But to our surprise the quality
was really BAD. It was astonishing what unsharpness and geometric
distortions are possible with such a small CRT (it's about 1 inch in
diameter). Perhaps it was simply defunct.
