, Mar 19th 2010 Discuss [1]

We keep asking digital photo frame manufacturers to put cellular data connections into their displays, only very few of them seem to listen.  One prospect on the near horizon is the Vizit from Isabella Products, a 10.4-inch 800 x 600 touchscreen that can be left freestanding or wall-mounted, and which uses an integrated GSM/GPRS quadband modem to receive images emailed, shared from an online gallery or sent from a cameraphone.  Having been up for pre-order for a while now, we now know that Vizit will go on sale March 23rd.

, Mar 15th 2010 Discuss [2]

Casio aren't planning to follow Sony down the path of interactive digital photo frames - as Sony have done with their Dash, adding Chumby widget support - but instead see the devices as a passive form of entertainment.  In an interview with Tech-On!, Casio described their intent as turning the digital picture frame into the "third screen", one which can "sensitively adapt to the users' lives and environments."  They've also put together a prototype to show that passive doesn't have to mean passé.

, Jan 27th 2010 Discuss [0]

WiFi isn't the sort of thing you'll usually find in a refrigerator - an old jar of mayo, perhaps, and a shrivelled looking tomato - but Samsung want to change that.  Fresh through WiFi certification [pdf link] is the Samsung SRT746AWTN, a refrigerator with an integrated digital photo frame.

Pandigital Photo Mail LED Digital Photo Frame gets 3G image downloads

Late into 2009 we upgraded our criteria for digital photo frames that want to avoid SlashGear scorn.  No longer is WiFi enough, to be taken seriously such displays must offer something more impressive - like integrated 3G - if they want to be lauded.  Happily Pandigital's Photo Mail LED Digital Photo Frame has enough spec-sheet positives to encourage us to overlook that dire name (and the equally dire press shots): it packs an 8-inch 800 x 600 LED-backlit display and AT&T wireless for WiFi-free downloads.

Transgear TGP-701MG digital photo frame uses your cellphone to get online

, Dec 17th 2009 Discuss [0]

We give digital photo frames a hard time here at SlashGear; it'll take integrated WiFi just to get you through the door, normally, since we reckon that's a must-have feature these days.  Even more appealing is integrated 3G, and while the TransTechnology Transgear TGP-701MG may not quite manage to make it internal, this 7-inch Japanese photo frame does at least offer a way to get online.

, Oct 22nd 2009 Discuss [0]

Remember the Sony S-Frame DPP-F700 combination digital photo frame and printer?  Announced late last month over in Singapore, the 7-inch WVGA display has just seen its official US launch, and it's expected to arrive in stores in January for around $200.  As well as displaying images on-screen - loaded either via USB or on a memory card, but frustratingly not wirelessly - the DPP-F700 can spit out 4 x 6-inch glossy prints for your mother-in-law to take away.
