MediaStreet Pure eMotion 128: LCD Frame Price Drop
We're big fans of digital picture frames, which can completely eliminate that most loathsome task: printing. No need to cross that digital chasm into the bleak analog world when you have a MediaStreet Pure eMotion 128, a digital picture frame with a 7-inch screen. That 128 number in its name stands for its amount of onboard memory, giving you 128MB worth of pics that you can change with the included remote control. Or you can use a variety of flash memory cards such as SD, MMC, MS, SM or CF cards, and it also adds some eMotion by playing your favorite music along with its automated slide show. The jaw dropper is its price, $129, or you can get it without the infrared remote control, tabletop and wall mounting hardware, USB cable and earphones for $109. That's $100 less expensive than a comparable model from Philips cost just a couple of months ago, and a full $200 cheaper than Samsung's entry into the LCD picture frame market.

Digital Foci's Picture Porter Elite photo viewer / PMP
Hot on the heels of MediaGear's HD2GO is yet another photo viewer / PMP, but with 40GB or 80GB hard drive options, the Picture Porter Elite is more akin to Epson's P-4000 line of capcious convergence devices.

Point, shoot and print from anywhere
A pocket-size camera and a portable photo printer are all you need to produce quality photographs anywhere you want. No computer is necessary with the Epson PictureMate Deluxe and optional internal battery (Internet price: $149). It affords improved portability with no power supply. The internal battery provides up to two hours of printing and will recharge when plugged into an AC. Brilliant color prints out of the PictureMate Deluxe cost 24 cents each, including the cost of the paper and ink. Color prints from start to finish took less than two minutes, and the color was excellent. The built-in premium photo viewer was a big help to select the photos I wanted printed after I plugged in my digital media directly into the printer. The viewer has a high-resolution high-quality 2.4-inch color LCD screen with tilt adjustment that made it real easy to see my images.
