Edited- Send...don't save wasn't focused exclusively on digital cameras

Send...Don't Save was my thoughts on the everyday use of capturing images (focused on mobile devices), most of the pictures I take aren't things I really care about keeping. they are "one time use" images that can safely be discarded after I send it.

In the spirit of this, here's a Panasonic digital camera that ships with "clipboard mode" that:

...lets you take pictures of maps, schedules and other info and save them to a separate folder so they are easy to find.

I haven't seen the camera yet, but I hope the clipboard stored images are easily deleted, or maybe even automatically deleted after a period of time? Even if it's just equally handled storage locations, recognizing the different use cases for images is a big step forward for digital cameras and I hope to see more of this thinking in the future.

..and to answer my own request in the "Send Don't Save" post, "Clipboard mode" is the best term to replace my ham-handed "working with" expression.
