Fidelity Expands Into U.S.; Ramps Up Digital Frame Line-up
Toronto, ON-based company Fidelity Electronics has announced a major company expansion that will see a new distribution facility open south of the border, along with the appointment of an expanded sales force to better serve the U.S. market. In addition, Fidelity will be opening a new corporate sourcing office and showroom in Kowloon, Hong Kong, which will help maintain quality control, and ensure high standards of customer service worldwide.
On the heels of this announcement, Fidelity also announced that it would be rolling out a new line of digital photo frames throughout the summer, including six models that will appeal to varying customer needs.
The DPF-1000PF, for example, is suited to professional photographers, featuring a large, 10.4-inch display, 1 GB internal memory, and support for up to 17 MP shots. It boasts advanced colour controls, specs, and software, and auto rotate.
Designed for business use, the DOF-1000F comes equipped with a 10.4-inch high resolution multimedia screen, two-hour rechargeable batteries, and 256 MB internal memory. Fidelity cites photo slide presentations as a useful application for business customers.
Fidelity offers the DPF-7000F for the entry-level user, featuring a high resolution 7-inch screen, instant viewing via slots for popular memory cards, and user-friendly on-board controls. The picture can be adjusted from portrait to landscape mode, and the frame comes in black or clear acrylic design. The DPF-7010F adds enhanced software and a wireless remote control.
Adding music and video to the mix is the new 7-inch DPF-7050F. It includes two additional interchangeable frames, and 256 MB of internal memory. It is operated via on-board or remote controls, and supports USB and all popular memory card formats.
The DPF-1050F expands on the current DPF-1040F by adding 256 MB of internal memory, and new software that offers “crisper graphics”, and advanced user managed functions from on-board or remote controls.
“We are establishing Fidelity Electronics as a global provider of a wide range of high quality, well priced digital picture frames,” commented Stan Samole, President, Fidelity Electronics. “We are very enthusiastic about the company’s rapid growth and expansion, as well as the new line of products we are now offering, which were developed because we believe in listening to our customers and giving them what they ask for.”
These new digital photo frames will be priced from $99 to $399.
