With all the computational gadgetry that has to be packed into a digital photo frame just to make it display pictures, you would think that with a little work it could be configured to display more than just photos of Timmy at Disney World – and you would be right. Mustek unveiled the PF-E700 on Thursday, a multitasking digital photo frame that puts its display to work for a host of other features.

Besides pictures, the PF-E700 displays the time, the indoor temperature, a calendar, and even has a built-in alarm clock. All features are controlled through seven independent buttons, and show up on the frame’s 7-inch 480 x 234 LCD display.

Of course, it also handles standard image, movie and music files in a handful of formats, and has card slots for SD, SDHC, MMC, MS Pro-Duo and CF cards, plus a USB 2.0 port. Advanced photo features include automatic slideshows with multiple transitions and a split-window slideshow.

According to Electronista, the PF-E700 will go on sale in April for $150.

iHeartRadio turns your TV into a holiday-themed music photo frame

iHeartRadio Holiday Visual Playlists

iHeartRadio has a suggestion for Vizio smart TV, Samsung smart TV, and Comcast X1 owners this holiday season. Instead of flipping your TV to the fireplace channel -- which may not have a very inspiring music soundtrack -- why not fire up the iHeartRadio app and tune in to one of the streaming music company's "visual playlists"?

The new feature combines curated music playlists with holiday photo imagery for a continuous festive slideshow set to music. Holiday compilations like iHeartChristmas and iHeartChristmas Classics are the most obvious choice for those looking to get in the holiday mood, but they're not the only options. If you'd prefer to see visuals accompanied by fewer Burl Ives and Mariah Carey tunes, you can also choose from Top 40, Country, Kids & Family, 80s, Classic Rock, and other stations.

Why you should buy the Samsung 65-inch The Frame QLED TV
Samsung is one of the best TV brands because it knows how to innovate. Besides being responsible for some of the best QLED TVs, it also creates visual delights like the Samsung 65-inch The Frame QLED TV. The best thing about it is that it is designed to be wall-mounted. Rather than being a TV that is meant to take up room on a TV unit, you mount it on your wall and it effortlessly blends into your surroundings. Much of that is thanks to its Art Mode which displays either your images or famous art from the Samsung store so that it looks just like a piece of art on your wall.
