Parrot’s Designer Digital Picture Frames @ CES 2009
What we have here is a Bluetooth-enabled 7 inch digital photo frame designed by Andrée Putman for Parrot. This simple and elegant looking frame allows users to wirelessly transfer pictures from any Bluetooth enabled PC or mobile phone. If you don’t have a Bluetooth enabled PC or handset – no worries. You can transfer pictures to the frame using a USB connection or via an SD/MMC card. The 7 inch display has a resolution of 720 x 480 and supports up to 262K colors. Other specs include support for Bluetooth 2.0, a mini-USB port, and support for JPEG and GIF file formats. The frame measures 219 x 174 x 25 mm and weighs 695 grams. You can purchase the frame for £250.
If Bluetooth connectivity isn’t enough for you, then you should check out the other Designer digital picture frame from Parrot – the Specchio “mirror” picture frame designed by Martin Szekely.
The Specchio features Wi-Fi connectivity in addition to Bluetooth 2.0 support. You can deliver digital images to the frame in a variety of ways. You can email pictures the frame. You can display whole Picasa or Flickr albums on the frame via Wi-Fi. You can transfer pictures from the PC/Mac via Wi-Fi. And of course, you can transfer pictures via Bluetooth from your mobile handset.
Ah yes, the Specchio frame also doubles as a handy mirror – just in case you want to look at yourself too. The 7 inch display has a resolution of 720 x 480 and supports up to 262K colos. There’s also a mini-USB port as well as an SD/MMC card slot. You can purchase the Specchio now for $499.99.
