The Sony Face to Face debuted in 1988. The Face to Face is a TV/Camera combo, which snaps a photo of you and sends your image through the phone lines to a recieving party. The unit turns your image into sound and away it goes. You're actually able to record your image on a standard tape recorder and play back your image on the screen, how sweet is that! The Face to Face has paved the way for web camera's and video conferencing. The unit is brand new with manual, warranty card, Neiman Marcus sales sticker, and packaging.
