New Kodak Pulse Digital Frame Says OMG! (literally)

By

The new Kodak Pulse digital frame is a Wi-Fi enabled frame with some interesting (or perhaps, odd) features.  The Pulse frame has its own email address, which allows other people to email photos to the frame, which are then displayed.

Once new photos are received, you can use the frame to contact the sender with comments on their photo and (as Kodak puts it) “includes options like Such a Kodak Moment, LOL!, OMG!, Congrats! and Wish I were there!”

A 7-inch version of the frame is $130, while a 10-inch version will cost $200.  Both should be available in Spring 2011.  Check availability on Amazon.com.
