No matter how old you are, everyone loves to brag about what they did over the summer, especially by showing you those long, really boring vacation videos. So here's an alternative: digital photo frames. They're a nice, subtle way of showcasing the places you've visited. Fidelity Electronics announced two new digital picture frames. The DPF-5600F ($199) dons a 5.6" screen and supports up to 10 megapixel photos. Compatible with Windows 98/ME/2000/XP, it contains a USB port to transfer your photos and uses CF/MS/SD/MMC memory card formats. You can even view your photos on TV with the TV/Video Output function. Available in a clear acrylic design. View a picture of the DPF-5600F here. The other frame is the DPF-8000F ($249, shown here) with an 8" screen, supports up to 12 megapixels, and displays not only photos, but plays MP3s and MPEG1/MPEG2/MPEG4 video files with built-in stereo speakers. Comes with a wireless remote and is available in black. I've reviewed several digital photo frames for Gearlog, but I haven't seen one yet I'm pleased with. I think I'll have to try these out!

This frame looks a lot like one from Digital Spectrum (Pacific Digital) -- Copies of this flying around everywhere!
