FREMONT,
Calif. - September 29, 2003 - Vialta, Inc. (OTC
Bulletin Board: VLTA), a developer of unique and innovative
home entertainment and communications products, today
unveiled VistaFrame, a simple and easy way to
display digital pictures directly from a memory card.
VistaFrame's slideshow feature allows consumers to easily
showcase digital pictures on a personalized display.
VistaFrame
is compatible with five popular memory card formats,
so users can display photos without the need for a computer.
In addition, users can display photos stored in VistaFrame's
internal memory. A diverse menu of features enables
consumers to create slideshows with custom settings.
"With
VistaFrame, we have made it very easy to enjoy your
digital pictures by simply inserting the memory card
from your digital camera into the digital picture frame,"
said Didier Pietri, president and chief executive officer
of Vialta. "VistaFrame follows the introduction
of Beamer TV, making it the second product launched
by Vialta this month, further diversifying our product
offering to consumers." Pietri continued,"
These two product introductions clearly demonstrate
Vialta's creativity and ability to consistently develop
unique products."
VistaFrame
Compatibility, Set-up and Use
VistaFrame
is compatible with CompactFlash®, Memory Stick®,
SD, SmartMedia®, and MultiMediaCard,
encompassing most standard memory card formats. Set-up
is as easy as plugging in the power connection. There
is no need for a camera or computer connection, special
wiring or web-based services. Simply insert a memory
card into the appropriate slot, and VistaFrame's intuitive
controls help you display your digital pictures individually
or customize them in a slideshow format. VistaFrame
automatically goes into power-saving mode if it has
not been used for 60 minutes, and wakes up either when
the built-in motion sensor detects movement, a memory
card is inserted, or a button is pressed.
VistaFrame's
Stylish Design
VistaFrame's
sleek design gives it a sophisticated look, perfect
within the home or office. The frame's modern finish
complements the clear, bright 6.8" TFT LCD flat
display screen.
