The frame is a D-Link Green product with power saving motion detection so it can automatically turn on when someone enters the room or off if the room is vacant.
D-link has partnered with FrameChannel to provide easy access to a library of content to include in their photo frame. Users can combine their personal photos with over 400 channels of dynamic content in the FrameChannel library.
Creating an account at www.internetphotoframe.com allows anyone to personalise the wireless picture frame experience. A user can also remotely manage a frame over the Internet using the same Web portal. This makes it the perfect gift for a novice computer user, letting the giver of the frame remotely manage the photos and content displayed.
With a built-in Wi-Fi adapter, the D-Link Wireless Photo Frame also gives users the choice to drag and drop digital photos into the frame via a widget located on the computer desktop, which then automatically displays the photos as a slide show on the photo frame.
Wireless setup is made by using the built-in WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). In order to connect to the Internet, the user pushes the WPS button on the frame and then on the compatible home router. It can also accommodate most standard flash memory formats such as USB thumb drive, SD, MMC and Memory Stick.
Photos may also be accessed from a local UPnP AV server such as a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device like the D-Link DNS-323. Additionally, pictures can be saved to the 1GB of internal memory.
The DSM-210 can be displayed the same as any standard photo frame. It can be wall mounted to hang in the living room or proudly displayed next to other photo frames via a rear easel stand. D-Link also has custom skins available, via a partnership with Skinit, to allow customers to personalise the outer portion frame to whatever colour or pattern they choose.
