Fidelity Electronics Digital Picture Frames: Vibrant & Reliable
While a lesser-known brand, Fidelity Electronics is kicking up some dust in the digital picture frame market. The latest invention, due to hit stores in July, is the Digital Photo Vault. (via Marketnews) Fidelity has always been known for crisp and vibrant displays. The biggest difference between the models is screen size and screen resolution. If you plan on using your digital picture frame with your computer, the word on the street is that Fidelity frames are not excellent with MACs. They could use some better product photography too, don't you think?
Digital Photo Vault (Available in July for $399)
Featuring an 8-inch screen and enormous 80GB hard drive (expandable with flash memory), this frame is meant to be a convenient storage facility for a vast collection of photos.

In addition, the frame has a motion sensor that will automatically power up the frame when it senses motion in the room.
