Gentec International is pleased to announce the launch of the iQ 8” PhotoM@il™ Digital Picture Frame.

Using Wi-Fi wireless technology, you can send and receive photos directly to and from the frame. Each frame has its own dedicated email address – there is no image hosting subscription required for use.

The PhotoM@il™ frame features a three-in-one design: the attractive LCD display can be used on its own, or with one of two decorative, interchangeable frames, to suit your style. It also includes a built-in, rechargeable lithium battery that allows cordless viewing for up to 2 hours, making it easy to display digital photos and video files without the use of a computer. And the built-in stereo speakers let you play MP3 audio files while displaying your photos.

The frame is easy to use – simply insert a memory card into the side of the frame for plug and play operation. It accepts Secure Digital (SD/SDHC), MultiMediaCard (MMC), Memory Stick, and xD-Picture Card memory cards, plus USB drives. You can also store hundreds of your favourite photos in the 2GB built-in memory.

The frame incorporates a high-resolution (800 x 600) 8” TFT-LCD display that produces sharp, bright images with rich colour, and offers a wide viewing angle. It features a true 4:3 photo format to eliminate image distortion common with widescreen displays. The user-friendly on-screen display makes it easy to manage and view your files. Other features include a programmable, auto on/off clock and calendar. You can even view your local weather forecast on the frame.

The iQ 8” PhotoM@il™ Digital Picture Frame (DPF880BPWF) includes a full-function remote control and AC power adaptor. It includes an easel-back stand for table-top setup, or use the integrated keyhole slots on the back of the frame for wall mounting. The suggested retail price is $319.99.
