It seems that I missed this Tamaggo 360° imager in my CES report - it can take 360° pictures by just clicking a button (no moving parts involved). The camera can be positioned towards the sky/ground or be used for horizontal/vertical panoramas.
The price will be $200 and it will be available in Q2 of 2012.
