In fact, I was so afraid to leave it anywhere, because i knew- from the insanely envious responses I got from people - that if I put it down for a second, someone would take it! ~Julia Roy “ I am loving the Sony camera. First, I didn't tell you, but it drew a lot of attention, both for the device itself and the camera. Everyone in the Techset blogger lounge at SXSWi had heard about it and had questions. And they loved the orange! ” ~Jolie O ’ Dell
