Thanks
to reader JRG for pointing us towards this prototype / pre-production
product. The Nixvue
Digital Album is similar to the Digital Wallet product we've previously
reviewed, however it's smaller, features a 10 GB hard disk and has the
ability to work standalone (without a PC), via a remote control you can
view images on a TV (Video / S-Video) and/or print directly (has a parallel
port). This neat little product is certainly interesting and we'll try
to bring you more information as it becomes available.
