Westinghouse teams with photographer Anne Geddes for new digiframes

As Westinghouse realizes that the digital photo frame market is about as over-saturated as possible right now, not to mention just how boring the whole notion has become, it has resorted to pulling in a "world renowned" name in photography in order to help push its forthcoming line. But it doesn't end with just a namedrop -- oh no, Westy's latest release has completely and entirely failed to divulge any information whatsoever on the specifications of any of its impending frames. No screen sizes, no resolutions, no capacities, nothing. Just paragraph after paragraph of how awesome it will be to have some of Anne Geddes' photographs mixed in with your own lame attempts at capturing life's most precious moments when you buy one of these elusive units this winter (at undisclosed price points, no less). Nice going, Westinghouse.

i remember how hard it was before to download some anne geddes pictures off the internet and stick them in a digital picture frame.

personally i'm holding out for the mapplethorpe edition

I'm with you on the Maplethorpe edition. I don't even really consider what Anne Geddes does to be art. It's just crap for putting up on the walls of Pediatrician Offices.

machines created fields of endless fields, where humans are no longer "born", we are grown

Total irony = putting a photo of your uncle Earl in his white tanktop, bermuda shorts, and knee-high socks in a digiframe labeled "Anne Geddes."

Priceless.

Whenever I hear Anne Geddes' name I automatically think of this:

Whenever I hear Anne Geddes' name, a little bit of vomit comes up. I literally feel like slapping people who reference her crap right before a session. She has completely tainted what a portrait of your child should be. She is no different than those nuts who dress up dogs in hats and suits and think they're funny because they're just like people.

Oh I'm sorry, I forgot this was about a photo frame, could have fooled me Westinghouse.

Remember that Ronnie Johns skit making fun of Anne Geddes? That was comedy gold.

[LarryLarryLarry @ Oct 28th 2008 4:44AM]

I had never heard of Anne but this picture is really disturbing. Closest I can place it is "Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Jr."

Well what ever the specs are, I can use it to upload and display various angles of my iPhone and hang it on the wall...

obsessed much?

I don't think so...

[Badger_badger_badger @ Oct 25th 2008 4:21PM]

u talk abot the iphone so much iz rlly funny and evryone thiks ur kewl

[MattShoots @ Oct 25th 2008 4:48PM]

I cannot stand Anne Geddes work. The whole idea of dressing up kids in stupid outfits and putting them inside flowers sells only to lonely housewives who think it's soooo cute! I can't believe she actually sells that crap.

[charlie @ Oct 25th 2008 6:02PM]

ug. i just don't find baby humans cute. would never, ever allow anything like this in my house.

[andrew @ Oct 25th 2008 9:05PM]

Westinghouse should stick to building nuclear reactors.

[matt @ Oct 27th 2008 3:16AM]

Westinghouse sucks! I am staring at a 32 inch flat panel made by them and it's BLACK! Wont display anything thaks WH

[shaun @ Oct 27th 2008 2:18PM]

Did anyone see The Office bit mocking Geddes?

[scott.a.hunter @ Oct 27th 2008 4:39PM]

Did you turn it on?
