The Television as a picture frame
Sony has just introduced its new BRAVIA Series W4000 1080p high-definition LCD TV.

As a novelty feature it incorporates a Picture Frame, in which we could use the television as a photo frame and display high definition pictures when the television is not in use. You can personalize the television with your own images or use one of the six pre installed images, that vary from pop art to Van Gogh.
The Picture Frame uses approximately 35% less energy than the normal TV. The W400 series is available in 52, 46, 40 and 32 inches.
