Ceiva's latest LCD frame, the Digital Photo Receiver ceiva.com $150), can display pictures sent from camera phones as well as from e-mail or the Web. Take snapshots or find classics from your phone's gallery and then use the phone's menu to send them to the frame's specific, randomly generated CeivaMobile email address. At night, when the frame uses its internal modem to call in and download photos, it will retrieve the shots you sent and automatically display them on its 5-in.-by-7-in. screen.

The 650 is not a radical redesign of the immensely popular Treo 600--appearance-wise, it's actually hard to tell the older model from the new one--but it is an all around improvement. The LCD screen looks better in sunlight, and the internal memory holds data even after the battery has drained. With certain service providers, the new Treo will be able to access a fast data network known as EDGE, giving it better-than-dial-up speeds for surfing or downloading files. It also...
...music gizmo? The Gmini400 from Archos, the French electronics company, speaks well for the pvp's future: the smallest such device, it can store as much as 80 hours of video and 200,000 digital photos, and lets the user play video games--all on a 2.2-in. color lcd screen. At $399, the Gmini400 can also carry 300 hours of music. "It's a sleek, trendy product with a very attractive price point," says Vamsi Sistla, an analyst at ABI Research. "But we think the market will trend towards nonentertainment uses, [adding] applications like videoconferencing." So bosses could track...
