September 10th, 2008 by Mark R in Digital Picture Frame, Photography


We’ve reported on several digital photo frames in the past, but this is the first time we covered one made by Sony Ericsson. This is only because the IDP-100 digital photo frame is the first one from the famed telecommunications company.

The user can download all their images to the IDP-100 via Bluetooth, USB flash memory, as well as memory cards like M2 card, micro SD, SD or MS Duo. This seven inch frame can display your photos in a landscape are portrait format with a very high image quality.

The Ovo digital picture frame

September 7th, 2008 by Ally in Digital Picture Frame

Finding ways to personalize your desk space is sometimes essential to your sanity.  Especially when the entire office looks bland and horribly sterile.  Well this little digital photo frame will keep your pictures flipping all day long.  Luckily it’s also fairly small, so although it is one more thing to clutter up your desk it won’t actually take up that much room.  The tiny little screen might make it difficult for some to see, but if you are just looking for a fairly cheap digital picture frame it should do the trick.

Sony Vaio CP1 digital photo frame

September 4th, 2008 by Edwin in Audio/Video Gadgets, Digital Picture Frame, Electronic Gadgets



Sony’s got its fingers dipped into the whole gamut of consumer electronics, and has just unveiled the wireless Vaio CP1 Wi-Fi photo frame that aims to make it a snap to share your favorite digital moments with family and friends, in addition to receiving news while streaming Internet radio in real time. This is clearly a step above other regular digital photo frames that does nothing but play a slideshow in a loop, while others are able to play MP3 tunes as well, but the Sony Vaio CP1 certainly goes one up on those departments with its built-in wireless connectivity.

LG DP889 Digital Picture Frame/DVD Player

September 2nd, 2008 by Mark R in Digital Picture Frame


It seems like every day that I am reporting on some new Digital Picture Frame of some kind, and I usually don’t have anything new to say about them. Most of them have some sort of SD Memory Card for quick picture uploads, or you can link it to your computer via USB to upload image, audio, and video files.

Needless to say, the LG DP889 has all that, but it has something that most Digital Picture Frames don’t: a built-in DVD player. There are many other improvements that LG made to the DP889, as if the company took the idea of a digital picture frame and improved it as much as possible.

Kodak wireless digital photo frame

July 11th, 2008 by Edwin in Digital Picture Frame

Kodak, a household name when it comes to photography, has just announced a brand new wireless digital photo frame line that will come in both 8″ and 10″ versions, capable of hooking up to photo-sharing sites such as KODAK Gallery and Flickr without the hassle of wires or the need for a computer to act as the middleman. Among the Kodak Easyshare wireless digital frame partners include Flickr, FrameChannel and Kodak Gallery as mentioned earlier. I find FrameChannel to be rather interesting as it provides users with access to the latest news, weather, traffic, sports scores and more with a single touch. In addition, FrameChannel doubles up as a portal enabling access to images from popular photo-sharing and social networking web sites.

miBook Digital Instruction Booklet

June 20th, 2008 by Mark R in Coolest Mobile News, Digital Picture Frame, Miscellaneous Gadgets

Every once in a while, you need more help than just a step-by-step instruction booklet. No, you need to have something that literally shows you how to do something with video footage.

This why people need something like the miBook. There really isn’t anything new about the design of this product, it is a simple PDA with a seven inch touchscreen.

What is unique about the miBook is the way it is being marketed. A recent Circuit City ad showed the MiBook as a kit that includes Two Food Network Cooking Titles. I believe the MiBook is designed to be some type of digital instruction booklet with helpful video footage.
