Picture frame with remote update via e-mail
by Volker Weber
Rochester, NY, Jan. 6 -- Eastman Kodak Company today announced its new KODAK PULSE Digital Frame. This touchscreen-enabled frame is equipped with Wi-Fi connectivity and a personal e-mail address so consumers can easily send pictures wirelessly to the frame from a computer, from Facebook and KODAK Gallery sites, or from any device that has email capability.
This is the pefect present for grandparents. You just send them new photos of your kids once a week. That never gets old. They only need wireless Internet access, you do the rest.

I hope they've secured it somehow, so it doesn't become a flashing billboard for porn sites.
The last episode of "bitsundso.de" mentioned such an unternet-enabled frame. Apparently the upload software did use the MAC address to identify a particular screen... :-)
We move ever closer to Harry Potter 'moving portraits'
@Martin:
Casey Halverson has posted about the issue: "How to show everyone whats on your frame" (also see the comments)
I wish all the picture frames would stop putting logos so large and bright on the front. At least an option ("Don't Backlight Logo", for instance).
I'd like to meet those granddaughters.
Is this an advertorial? Picture frames with email update have been around for years or am I missing something?
I will make sure I ask permission from the content police before posting to my site.
Volker, have you seen the Pix Star frames? Wifi, 3G, WebRadio, etc. Good reviews as well.
