I'd like to know the diffences that are worth nothing when choosing between Polaroid Pogo and Polaroid 300. Considering I am a newbie when it comes to cameras, especially Polaroid, I have no idea whatsoever between the advantages and disadvantages of having one over the other.

Well, I'd check out the Amazon pages of each of them.

Aside from price, the biggest difference is the medium: the Pogo is digital, and the 300 uses film. The Pogo will give you the ability to edit a little bit in-camera before printing.

That said, $199 is a lot for a point and shoot with no optical zoom (digital only). 4x digital zoom on a 5MP camera leaves you with a pretty wimpy 0.31 megapixels, on par with 2005-era cell phone cameras. Perhaps a regular compact camera plus something like the Canon Selphy (a portable, battery-powered photo printer) or even the PoGo Instant Printer, which uses the same paper as the Pogo camera, would fit your needs.
