This is great.

Even cooler: Print Products!

A 20 page hardcover photo book costs $29.99. This is awesome.

Yes, pretty nice, though a bit pricey. I think iPhoto has had this option for a decade.

But obviously poorly marketed!

I wonder if it'll be available in the UK. Hopefully! I say "hopefully" because attempting to upload photos from my wife's iPad to photobox-like websites is incredibly painful or impossible (or you must use their app due to the iPad having no filesystem access, where ordinary file-access HTML elements just appear as blank spaces in forms, making it IMPOSSIBLE to upload from a website, thereby forcing you to install some rubbish crippled app).

I've bought photo calendars from iPhoto in the UK before, worked well, looked good.

Apple's competitive relative to something like Blurb (which is the on-demand printing provider built into Lightroom)... maybe even a little cheaper for a similar product.

They're more expensive than (for example) Walgreens, but, without ordering books from both, I'm not sure if they're similar quality-wise.
