Considering the hottest selling products over Christmas were digital photo frames, it’s not that surprising to see display heavyweight ViewSonic scaling its products down for this profitable sector.

The frames come with 128Mb of internal memory and photos can be uploaded via or a memory card. The 7in DP701W4WH has a an 800x480 resolution, 220 cd/m2 brightness and a 400:1 contrast ratio.

The 8in DF88W-523 has the same resolution but throws in audio and video playback to the mix with support for MPEG2 and MPEG4 files.

The top-end DF87G-533 has a the highest resolution and contrast ratio of 800x600 and 500:1 respectively, and also supports music and video playback. Both the DF88W-523 and DF87G-533 have integrated speakers.

Available in the US first, and here in the coming weeks, the 7in DP701W4WH costs $99 while the DF88W-523 and DF87G-533 cost $119.-Martin Lynch
