Kodak's new W820 (8-inch) and W1020 (10-inch) are the latest in the company's charming line of Quick Touch Border digital photo frames. Quite similar to their
M820 and M1020 (pictured) counterparts in most respects, the new frames add WiFi, which brings with it services like Flickr, FrameChannel and Kodak Gallery. Unfortunately, the only way to add generic RSS feeds is FrameChannel, and all FrameChannel subscriptions include a monstrous banner ad across the bottom of each frame -- at least Kodak's partnership with Flickr is separate, so those subs are clean. Each frame includes 512MB of storage in addition to memory card slots, and they should be out next month for $250 and $280, respectively.

nice, i saw sony digital frames the other day in the store...really liked the way they look...perhaps these should be black too.

Mr. Miller is incorrect. RSS feeds which are added through the FrameChannel service do not include advertising.

When these come down in price a bit I think they'll be the perfect solution for previewing photography on-site -- without booting up the computer.

I'd "bump" that "pair" of "friendlies" if you know what I mean, and I think that you do!

Wondering what the transitions are. All I need is cross-fade or dissolve.

This is also a wifi-enabled digital photo frame with original new panel, 10.2" with active area 221.7984 x 131.52mm. Zero death pixels guaranteed.
