Both 7" frames automatically display pictures attached in web-based emails anywhere. In addition, both S-Frame Wi-Fi Series models can display recent photo and album uploads from your friends? Facebook.
The frames also feature 1 GB of on-board memory and a touch panel that makes it easy to browse through your photo collection, pick slideshow options and set photo updates from your PC, email or social networks.
Photos, music and HD video clips (NB: music and video with WA700 only) can also be played from a connected USB thumb drive.
Both digital photo frames can display current weather and forecasts provided by the AccuWeather online weather service.

You can also view Full HD (AVCHD or MPEG4) movie clips shot with your camcorder or digital camera. The in-built speaker lets you enjoy your choice of MP3 music files to accompany photo slideshows.
An energy-saving on/off timer on both models can schedule the frame to switch automatically to standby when it?s not needed .
