Scalado Rewind is a feature that guarantees the perfect group shot every time through an innovative combination of facial recognition and a timeline controller. The results seem pretty amazing.

The video above depicts the app being used on an Android phone… the only problem is that the app is no longer available on Android. Or iPhone. Where did it go?

The plot thickened when RIM recently revealed a suspiciously similar feature at the recent Blackberry World conference. The feature was touted as one of the most exciting new features of the upcoming Blackberry 10. Yep you guessed it, they had been working with Scalado to bring this feature to their new flagship handset.

In the background, however, Nokia bought the entire company, including Scalado’s technology, apps, IP and team. This means we will see a rash of Windows Phones hitting the market with the best of what Scalado has to offer, including Rewind as well as a whole host of existing as well as yet-to-be-invented features.

So while Blackberry 10 will most likely ship with the “Rewind” feature, did RIM miss a beat by letting Nokia (and by association Windows Phone) take control of the company that delivered one of their most exciting features to date?
