PhotoVu's 17-inch RSS-enabled digital photo frame, the 1765W
We've seen a few WiFi and RSS enabled digital photo frames from PhotoVu in the past, but they've all been overly large for our city-sized living spaces, which is why we're happy to see the somewhat more reasonable 17-inch 1765w make its debut. The 16:10 frame reads all the obvious digital camera formats, but unlike most other frames, it includes plugins for popular apps like Picasa and iPhoto that let you handle file management directly inside your photo app, instead of having to play the scale-and-export game. Like all of PhotoVu's other frames, the 1765w also features an RSS reader and web server for completely remote administration, and integration with services like Flickr, SmugMug, and .mac. Of course, all this hotness is going to cost you -- the 1765w runs a steep $699 direct from PhotoVu.
PhotoVu intros 22-inch PV2265w wireless digital photo frame
PhotoVu, the same outfit that delivered a 19-inch digiframe, is now upping the ante once more with the "industry's first 22-inch high-resolution, widescreen wireless digital picture frame." This behemoth features a 1,680 x 1,050 resolution panel, built-in software for displaying RSS feeds, 300 cd/m2 brightness, a 1,000:1 contrast ratio and a USB 2.0 port for connecting a flash drive or external hard drive. Swank though it may be, the PV2265w won't run you cheap, as you'll be asked to cough up a whopping $1,299 to get this bad boy to your door.
PhotoVu's 19-inch widescreen digital picture frame
"Boy your kids are ugly" is something that no one wants to hear when looking at family photos, but if you decide to purchase the PhotoVu PV1965w 19-inch widescreen digital picture frame, you'd better brace yourself for that possibility, because this thing is kind of big. The WiFi enabled frame, which the company claims is the "first" of its kind (we assume they mean widescreen), features a 16:10, 1440 x 900 LCD screen, 802.11b, and USB connectivity (for adding flash or external hard drives). Sure, the $1,199 price tag is roughly seven-times the cost of a similarly sized cheapo LCD monitor, but can you really put a price on your memories? Yes, you can, and that price is $1,199.
