New Photo Messenger by Ality


washingtonpost report that The Wireless PIXXA by Ality is an 8-inch, Wi-Fi-enabled digital frame with an innovative new sharing option. Users can send photos from a computer to a frame, or from frame to frame, using Ality’s new Photo Messenger, which works like an instant messenger service. Using the touch screen, users can drag and drop photos to send to friends, and can add a message to each batch of photos.

“It works a lot more efficiently [than other Wi-Fi digital photo frames]," said William Wong, founder and CEO of Ality. “With the instant messenger, friends get photos in one second.”

Users can also sync the frame to online-sharing sites Flickr and Picasa, and can access Google Calendar via the digital frame’s screen. News, weather, and sports can be streamed across the frame’s LCD, and , of course, it also displays your favorite pictures. The Wireless PIXXA has 128MB internal memory, features a rechargeable battery, and supports CF/SD/MMC/MS/xD media. It will retail for $299 when it’s released in March.
