Popular mobile phone accessories maker, Parrot, has announced the new digital photo frame – DF7700. Unlike other similar products this one DOESN’T feature the Bluetooth connectivity. Rather, Parrot decided to go the other way…

Parrot announces DF7700, first MMS digital photo frame

By integrating a SIM card into a frame they’ve came with the world’s first MMS digital photo frame. To put it in other words, you’ll be able to share your photos with other people who have this frame instantly. Simply send them an MMS and they will see the photo you just took on their frame. Kinda neat, don’t you think?

But Parrot went one step further. The DF7700 also features a USB connection and an SD card slot allowing you to load pictures on the 7-inch leather frame from a computer or from a camera. Plus, let’s not forget their technology that automatically resizes and rotates photos to match the screen size and chosen position. Yeah, I want one, even though I still love the Bluetooth which is somehow (intentionally) forgotten on this device…Finally you may want to know the release date. Just like any other company, Parrot also wants to benefit from the Christmas shopping season, hence we should see the DF7700 released “by the end of 2007.”

    Beat me to it Thor. IIRC it was two frames; one with MMS support and the other just with IRDA.
