Samsung flirts coyly with 7-inch AMOLED Digital Photo Frame

We know exactly what you were thinking when you first heard the news that Kodak was selling its OLED business to LG: 1) wait, Kodak had an OLED business, and b) who the hell will I buy my $1,000 OLED digital photo frame from now? The latter part of this conundrum has just been answered by Samsung who will unveil its 700Z Digital Photo Frame here at CES. Sammy's offering boasts a 7-inch AMOLED display, 4GB of internal memory, Bluetooth with video support. Unfortunately, the frame's million-to-1 contrast ratio isn't enough to distract this product model from her dreams of beauty pageant stardom.

1) These people need to hurry up with the real OLED stuff
b) Sometimes its hard to tell if you guys are joking or if its a real mistake

@Phil P

engadget's good, are they not =D

[YoctoYotta Posted Jan 5th 2010 9:17AM]

You know, Eastman Kodak actually invented OLED technology. Any self respecting loser knows that.

[Duke Posted Jan 5th 2010 10:16AM]

@YoctoYotta

Are you telling us you're a self-respecting loser?

[ConceptVBS Posted Jan 5th 2010 12:05PM]

@YoctoYotta

Samsung has a cross licensing agreement with Kodak on OLED tech.

[YoctoYotta Posted Jan 5th 2010 3:04PM]

@Duke Precisely! Glad to see someone's paying attention around here.

[YoctoYotta Posted Jan 5th 2010 3:06PM]

@ConceptVBS That's true, but EK created and researched OLED back in the 1980s. Just serves as a wonderful reminder that all the far out shit that's being reported on in laboratories right now will someday be mass market technology 15-25 years down the road.

[tylersmyler Posted Jan 5th 2010 9:28AM]

Wasn't Kodak one of the first to venture in to OLED tech?

[Electromodo Posted Jan 5th 2010 11:16AM]

MOAR hot asian pageant stardom chicks to Engadget!!!

[Wwhat Posted Jan 5th 2010 11:41AM]

I just happen to see an OLED picture frame in the store today, and yeah it does make quite the difference with LCD's, it's hard to believe we put up with LCD's when you see it, especially the viewing angle dependency of LCD's seems really stupid.

[Wwhat Posted Jan 5th 2010 11:44AM]

Note though that even though it was a small picture frame the price was equal to that of a 1 yard (109cm) big LCD HDTV.

[SirNoDroin Posted Jan 5th 2010 11:53AM]

thats a bad shop.

I thought OLED screens are supposed to be so natural it would be like taking a picture of a painting. Why are they still having to "simulate" the screen images.

[NAME Posted Jan 5th 2010 11:53AM]

sex

[ConceptVBS Posted Jan 5th 2010 12:07PM]

Just a little Samsung OLED music video. K-POP FTW!

The only reason this post is up is because of the chick, not the product.
