Register Hardware: If you’ve got a stack of photographs at home and not enough wall space to hang them from, then check out this digital photo frame with integrated picture scanner.
Skyla, manufactured by storage firm LiteOn, has a built-in scanner that lets pictures measuring up to 4 x 6in be run through it and digitised. The frame then converts these into digital images which are displayed, in colour, on the 8in screen.
The frame can store up to 200 4 x 6in images, but if you choose to scan in smaller, 3 x 5in prints then about 400 pictures can be shown. The frame also has two USB ports through which you can feed images from a Flash drive.
The Skyla frame will be displayed in stores across the US for around $220. When Europe will follow is yet unknown.

I just found the perfect birthday present for my wife of 18 years. She only recently came into the digital age and because of that, we have tons of photos that need the Skyla.
It will go perfectly beside our other digital photo frame.
Where can I get one?
