Abit had quite unique thing on the floor at Computex
ABIT HAD ONE quite unique thing on the floor at Computex, and it makes so muchsense that I am shocked that no one else has done it before. Theidea is a digital photo frame with integrated printer, and Abitcalls it the FunFab. Abit FunFab frame/printer It seems like such an obvious thing to do, but not only is Abit thefirst, they also patented it. It just makes sense though, you havea picture on the frame, and the infirm grandmother over for theholidays really wants a copy. The 'old way' meant going to a PC,finding the pic, and printing it out on your inkjet withquestionable results. With a FunFab, you hit the print button on the remote, and a 3x5pic slides out the side. Grandmother is happy, you have far lesswork to do, and Abit shareholders are happy. The one pictured above is the P80, but there are several othermodels. This one is the larger screen, the smaller screen is justto the left. Both are 600*300 rez, and the printer is a 300 DPI dyesublimation unit that produces high quality prints. You can get newcartridges of course, and given HP's balance sheet, it should be alucrative business for Abit. You can also interchange the bezels to change the look, there iseverything from wood picture frames to carbon fiberesque finishes. Thefirst FunFabs should be out next month, they should sell for about200 Euros. μ
