Chris Coleman checks out the new D-Link DSM-210 photo frame, which connects to the Internet via Wi-Fi connectivity.
D-Link has announced the immediate availability of the D-Link DSM-210, a 10-inch photo frame with Wi-Fi and Internet connectivity. We liked the simple design on the frame itself. It's fashioned literally to look like a picture frame, not a cyberpunk eyesore beeping and flashing away in your living room.
Users can upload photos from their own computers or from such Internet repositories as Flickr, Picasa and Facebook, and the D-Link DSM-210 can also playback streams and RSS feeds. Additionally, the frame can be linked to a FrameChannel account, which includes over 400 channels of dynamic content and the ability to manage the D-Link DSM-210 remotely over the Internet.
The frame also accepts most flash formats, including thumb drives, SD, MMC and Memory Stick, and it can interface with local UPnP servers. Finally, the D-Link DSM-210 has one-gigabyte of internal storage, and it features a green-mode, in which the device automatically shuts off and on as people enter the room.
The interoperability is a plus, especially the integration with Flickr, though we can't say for sure how well the Wi-Fi connection works. Regardless, one-gig of memory is definitely a cool added bonus. The D-Link DSM-210 is available now at an MSRP of $250.
