Samsung has launched a new range of wireless/digital picture frames!
From the press release:
Samsung’s leading-edge screen technology ensures your memories are vibrantly displayed. A glossy black bezel, subtle patterning and rounded edges make these digital photo frames an elegant choice or special gift.
From effortless to sophisticated, the digital photo frames are available in three models – the H Series, P Series and V Series:
* The H-Series is simple to use. Images can be loaded through a USB thumb drive, direct from your PC or through the 3-in-1 memory card reader. The card reader means that you can insert almost any memory card from your digital camera and display all the photos instantly. Rotate your photos on a loop with a number of transitions between each photo or choose your favourite photo to make it a semi-permanent feature.
* The P-Series includes all the same functions of the H-Series and additionally allows you to play music through its built-in speakers, letting you create a sound track for your memories. A built-in battery with one hour battery-life means you have a wireless option.
* At the top of the range is the V-Series, boasting multiple video and picture playback options, whilst enabling you to play music over your best-loved images. It comes with wireless connectivity so that you can stream images direct from your PC, notebook, or even Flickr and Facebook websites. The V-Series also contains 64 megabytes of built-in flash memory allowing you to store around 50 high quality photos.
Additionally, each photo frame features Starlight Touch Controls, an easy to use control panel that lights up red when turned on and disappears after 10 seconds of inactivity.
Wireless digital picture frames by Samsung are FrameChannel-compatible!

Frame Media Partners with Scala to bring Digital Signage service, SignChannel to Market
Partnership Provides Flexible Low Cost Digital Signage Solution
Wellesley, MA, February 25, 2009 – Frame Media, the leading provider of software and content for connected devices, today announced a partnership with Scala, a leading provider of end-to-end solutions for the digital signage and advertising management markets, to bring SignChannel to market. SignChannel is a low-cost, self-service, easy-to-use digital signage service.
Under the terms of the partnership, Frame Media provides the platform for content management and delivery and customer support. Scala provides software technology enabling SignChannel users to create their own content which can be combined with Frame Media’s vast library of commercial content channels.
“Scala is the perfect SignChannel partner. Its rich history and leadership position will be a critical ingredient to the success of the service. SignChannel is the natural extension of our very popular consumer service, FrameChannel,” commented Alan Phillips, CEO of Frame Media.
The new offering will provide easy-to-use, entry level signage at very low cost. A large number of small to medium businesses can now take advantage of new digital display technologies that were previously unaffordable due to high service and equipment costs. Businesses will remotely manage both local and global displays around the world over the Internet. Users can take advantage of SignChannel’s array of timely, up-to-the-minute content including weather, news, sports, entertainment, finance, and local community information, as well as thousands of other available RSS feeds.
Users of the new service can create their own messages without the need for expensive professional services. Content templates are oriented toward specific lines of business such as banking, corporate communications, education, entertainment, government, healthcare, hospitality, and retail. The templates leverage Scala’s deep knowledge of digital signage gained from working with thousands of customers throughout its extensive global distributor network. Optionally, business users can also develop custom content using standard business software tools.
SignChannel will keep the cost of entry level digital signage down by taking advantage of low-cost digital displays. The newest generation of on-line displays start with wireless digital picture frames, priced at under $200. SignChannel is expected to be available during the second quarter of this year. Final prices have yet to be defined but are expected to be well below the cost of traditional high functionality offerings.
