D-Link has announced a digital photo frame that enables users to manage content displayed using a website or with a drag and drop desktop widget.
This next-generation photo frame is positioned as an "Exclusive Object of Desire" and designed to enhance the home entertainment experience by allowing users to view their favorite photos easily and conveniently virtually anywhere in the home or over the Internet – providing a high-resolution 10" LCD display connected over a wired or wireless home network.
The D-Link Internet Photo Frame (DSM-210) is managed using an intuitive website (dlink.framechannel.com), where users can organize photos online for display as well as remotely stream content such as weather, news, trivia and more using popular Really Simple Syndication (RSS) feeds.With built-in wired and wireless adapters, the DSM-210 also gives users the choice to simply drag and drop digital photos into photo frames using a "widget" located on the computer desktop, which then automatically displays the photos as a slide show on the photo frame. The widget also allows a user to remotely manage a frame over the Internet using the same drag and drop method, making it the perfect gift for someone who is a novice computer user, letting the giver of the frame remotely manage the photos and content displayed.
The DSM-210 features a 16:9 screen and includes an interchangeable black or white frame. It contains slots for USB and common memory cards, and can be networked via an Ethernet connection or Wi-Fi. The digital photo frame is widget compatible and can connect directly to the PC or via Internet options. With a rechargeable battery and premium content available, the frame comes with a one-year subscription for basic Internet content.
The D-Link DSM-210 will soon be available through D-Link’s network of retail outlets, resellers, solution providers and distributors, at an MRP of Rs. 39,900.
