Epoq Introduces Wireless ATSC TV’s That Are Also Digital Picture Frames

Our electronics are getting more and more versatile with each passing day!  Now we’ve even got an HDTV that is also a digital picture frame!

From iTechNewsNet comes this information about the Epoq EPT-LC10AT Wireless ATSC TV’s:

“Epoq introduces a new lineup of portable ATSC digital TV’s, including the EPT-LC10AT, EPT-LC7AT and EDP-AT02.

The 10-inch EPT-LC10AT has a 480×800 display and built-in lithium-ion battery. The 7-inch has a 7-inch 480p screen and battery. The EDP-AT02 gets also a 7-inch display but comes with no built-in battery. It can also be a digital photo frame and comes with USB 2.0 port and SD/MS/MMC card slot.

The price of EPT-LC10AT is not yet announced while the EPT-LC7AT and EDP-AT02 are priced at $279 and $249 respectively.”

CrunchGear has this to add:  “Now that the digital transition is just months away, and already happened in some parts, analog, handheld TVs are going to stop working. You know, the type of TVs you used to sneak into church overnighters and ‘hunting trips.’ Epoq is here to make sure that you can continue to see the game even if you’re in the middle of the lake ‘fishing’ with these three new models.”

Item:  Currently, the Epoq tv’s are the only truly portable DTV’s in the USA, for the other companies’ small ATSC sets can receive only SD, not the HD channels.

And in between shows, you can watch all of your favorite digital pictures slideshowing across the screen!

Cea Predicts Consumer Electronics Will Hit the $700 Billion Mark by 2009

According to new data from the Consumer Electronics Association (CED) and the GfK Group, consumer electronics revenue will grow nearly ten percent in 2008, hitting the $700 billion mark by 2009.  As long as people try to improve their lives, they will continue to embrace technology.

CEA’s senior director of market research Tim Herbert says, “No matter where consumers are, whether it’s on the coast of Turkey or the mountains of Peru, they crave access to information, entertainment and two-way communication.  Many regions of the world face high population densities or underdeveloped infrastructure.  Mobile products help consumers overcome these hurdles.”

This is not an exaggeration, either.  I fully believe that more and more, people are relying on electronic devices for many things, chief among them entertainment.  In the area of wireless/digital picture frames, for example, one doesn’t even require a computer to use some of them; however, WITH a computer, and particularly with a wireless connection, one can utilize a wireless picture frame to its full capacity.

Kodak EasyShare EX1011: Target Has A Deal For You!

I love to shop at Target, and yesterday, as I was checking out the electronics department (Electronics is my favorite department in any store; I’d rather look at wireless picture frames, cell phones, and mp3 players than clothes and jewelry) (Yes, I’m a woman), I saw a crowd gathered around a display. I’d seen this happen in electronics before, and it’s usually because something really awesome is being displayed.

With electronics, of course, the best way to display something is to set it up and let it run.

That’s what they’d done with the Kodak EasyShare EX1011 wireless digital picture frame.

Customers were letting the clerk scan their wallet pictures and upload them on a computer, and from the computer, the wireless digital picture frame picked them up and put them on a slideshow.  Everybody in the store was pushing forward, waving pictures of their kids, their dogs, etc, to see them on the wireless Kodak frame.

Talk about excellent publicity for Kodak!!!!!

The Kodak EasyShare EX1011 wireless digital picture frame is a fantastic frame, even without the need for some crowd control.  You can get all kinds of faceplates for it, so it’s bound to go beautifully with any decor.

Since it’s wireless, you can send your pictures to it from a thousand miles away!  I love that about a wireless frame!

At Target, right now, the Kodak EasyShare EX1011 wireless digital picture frame is only $249.99.  What a deal!

In The Market For A Wireless Digital Picture Frame? It Pays To SHOP AROUND!

I can’t stop talking about my Digital Spectrum MF 8104 wireless digital picture frame. It’s the highlight of my living room, the focal point of the sofa and all the chairs in there, and nobody can walk past it without pausing for at least a full minute. It showcases and slideshows the several thousand pictures stored in my FrameChannel account.

As with any product, especially electronics, however, it pays to shop around.

At eTail Electronics, for example, the DS MF 8104 wireless frame is $318.00, while at Sterling Purse.com, this same wireless digital picture frame is $339.00.

At B&H, the Digital Spectrum MF 8104 wireless digital photo frame is $299.95, and on the Digital Spectrumwebsite, they’re asking $388.00 for this frame.

You can get the Digital Spectrum MF 8104 wireless digital picture frame on Amazon right now for $304.99, marked down from $349.00, and if you don’t mind a wireless frame that’s been used, you can get this one for only $176.10. I’ve purchased a lot of used merchandise from Amazon, and so far, I haven’t noticed the least bit of difference!

On eBay, this wireless digital frame is going, going, going for $318.99, but that price could change at any moment.

At WalMart, the Digital Spectrum MF 8104 wireless digital picture frame is $324.84.

Sometimes, an online electronics site will offer free shipping, so be on the lookout for that, too.

Let me say this once more: if my house caught fire, God forbid, I’d save all the people, the cats, and then my Digital Spectrum MF 8104 wireless digital picture frame. Yes, I love it THAT MUCH.
