Smartparts 32" Photo Frame Towers Over the Competition

While we thought we'd seen the largest digital photo frames here at CES, we were wrong...by a lot!
Smartparts, Inc., is showcasing a 32" photo frame inside the CES Digital Imaging Pavilion in the South Hall,. Dubbed the SP3200, the flagship model of the company’s OptiPix™ family of digital picture frames, the 32" behemoth is 16:9, widescreen LCD panel that displays photos in high-definition, with a resolution of 1366x768.

The frame can also playback video with sound, including MPEG, MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4, WMA and AVI files, at their native resolutions. In addition to being able to control the SP3200 directly from the unit, consumers can also operate the frame via RF remote control. With an operating range of over 100 feet, the RF remote gives consumers the ability to navigate through the SP3200’s graphical user interface and change settings from a significant distance. With 256MB of internal memory, the $899 frame will be available through specialty retailers nationwide, "sometime in the future."
