Brig just linked to the Salon story on Sony’s $900 picture frame. I really like the idea of the CyberFrame, I just think Sony made it too expensive.
I’d like a Palm-like setup where I could transfer the photos onto the memory stick by syncing it with my computer. As a photographer I’d love to be able to rotate the photos in my living room and run a slide show. Considering the money saved in printing and framing costs – and of course the whole neat factor – it could be economical as well.
But, as the article states, “Sony seems infected with the dangerous assumption that its products will sell at any price.” So true, I’d pay $99 for the CyberFrame, definitely not $899.
