We already heard of a WiFi-equipped Samsung photo frame hitting Europe, but it looks like the company is unsurprisingly releasing one in Korea as well, albeit with a slightly different model number. From the looks of it, however, that small distinction doesn't seem to indicate any larger changes to the frame itself, with the company's new SPF-72V model boasting the same 7-inch screen, memory card slots, USB port, RSS support, and Windows Media Player 11 interaction as the SPH-72V we saw earlier. It also packs more or less the same price, coming in at 229,000 won, or just under $250.
a girl in the picture looks HOT...
I see nothing but a beautiful asian girl surrounded by three other beautiful asian girls in the picture frame....
She looks very very familiar. I think I've seen her in other Samsung ads. Heck, I think she's their regular model.
Wait! This is about photo frames with wi-fi. I must've missed that from that picture....
I think that is Song Hye Kyo, she is a actor in Korea.
nope, definitely not song hye gyo.
My eyes are deadlocked to the center of the image.
A shoulder?
You're getting warmer!
Looks like Samsung's marketing department has failed.
Not when they offer up a free subscription to "best moments with models" RSS picture feed with purchase of a wi-fi picture frame.
Yeah... Horribly
btw, where are the photo frames ;)
You vain, VAIN girl.
C'mere.
What's the power consumption of such a photo frame? I'd love to have one, but I'd be constantly thinking about the waste of power :(
Lemme guess, you drive a Prius?
Get real.
Definitely. A poser green. Just like the people that talk about how many calories are in such and such while eating it, but really don't diet at all.
Get real.
You wasted more power posting that insipid comment.
(not you palooz)
iKlear and a box of tissues is what I use. I'm pretty particular about not having a bunch of damn smudges on my screen and I think it works great.
Or soon I'll be using windex and paper towels on my new glass iMac screen. :D
God she's hot. Sod the photo frame things. She must be some kinde of FemBot, that's what this is all about, if it is I'll take two, the bots not the frame, no, make it three. Korea here I come. I'm going now before the sexual side of my mind makes me type stuff.
This ad is horrible. I have no idea what they are selling and I don't care.
Part of me just wants to reach out and untwist her shoulder strap...
I believe she's wearing a hoody, so it's really not twisted ... but me my guest.
Why can't Engadget just make a tag to easily search all the Samsung girls....
no need. just search Samsung
Do you all have wolf-whistle scripts that just plop in a "Hey hot mama" cliché for every damn Korean model? While you're all waving your junk at each other, you sound like 14-year-olds imitating construction workers.
Now about the actual PRODUCT - one fundamental problem with digital photo frames is that in comparing them to "regular" photo frames, you've got a hard sell to consumers. It's nice to see more WiFi-enabled frames since my idea of a photo frame doesn't involve a bunch of cables restricting where I put it. The price is another killer... I think that features like WiFi and RSS to push others' photos to you score with consumers more than a bigger screen (you know how many people show off small photos in their wallet or on their digicam?), so I'd sacrifice a little screen area to get the price down without skimping on features. Though this one's a bit expensive for a 7" frame anyway.
Huhuhuhuh... you said hard.
WiFi photo frame isn't as bad as you may think... Though setting one up off a Linksys router is probably one of the most painful hardware configuration processes I've ever encountered.
if you click on the picture you get more of them :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
Thanks Chris...I love the miniskirt.
can you say plastic? actually, whats with her messed up hairline?
