The Bellings Media Chef digitally displays recipe videos while you cook. Now, I’m not saying you could do this with your laptop and save money, but I am totally saying you could do this with your laptop and save money. More »
For 400 big ones, you can get an AVLabs 8-inch screen with 4GB of storage to share your photos. Or you could spend a bit more and get a smartphone. More »
And why wouldn’t they? As a concept, it’s pretty sound. Android is relatively cheap—cheaper than making your own OS—relatively stable, and fairly full featured with proper support for everything you’d want to do (including internet + touch). Makes sense for us. [Tech On]
I really, really like the idea of this digital photo frame. Wireless access to Facebook, Flickr and Picasa photos, plus 1GB of internal memory and USB/SD card slots to expand available storage. When the US reviewed it last year, they seemed to like it as well, even though they wanted a slightly easier UI. But with an RRP of $799, it’s going to be tough to justify spending almost your entire K-Rudd economic stimulus.gift voucher on a device that displays photos and RSS feeds.
You know what there’s not enough of in the world? Coffee mugs with integrated digital photo frames. (If you answered clean water, peace or medical care, thanks for playing, idiot.)
Sony’s pile of new photo frames is topped by the 10-inch V1000 and X1000, which have supposedly 15x sharper contrast and are 13 percent than last year’s models, for that superduper better-than-reality look.
I love my parents. My dad is tech savvy, my mum isn’t, but both are equally bedazzled by technology and their reaction to certain gadgets is funny. Some parents, however, are not so impressed.
We know you’ve been waiting for that perfect stocking stuffer, and compliments of Kodak, we’ve found it. Their 7.6-inch OLED Wireless photo frame is now available at Amazon for just under a grand.
Looks like digital photo frames are beginning to move from nice-to-haves to actually quite useful: Skyla’s Memoir photo frame has an in-built 600dpi scanner so it’ll digitise your hardcopy photo archive for you. It’s got a 1GB memory, apparently good for about 200 4 x 6-inch prints (the maximum size the scanner can take). Plus it’s a respectable 800 x 600-pixel 4:3 ratio screen, and has two USB ports so you can sync the frame to your PC and plug in flash drives and the like. Not too shabby at all for $US220 when it comes out in December. [GearLog via OhGizmo]
