The popularity of digital cameras has created one significant problem: how to share those wonderful digital pictures with family and friends.

Royal Consumer Information Products has provided the solution with the introduction of two innovative and lifestyle accommodating digital picture displays: the Royal Digital Picture Album and the silky eggdrop-shaped Royal Hot Shots keychain. Each complements active lifestyles and frees users from the clutches of the PC, the usual way digital pictures are viewed.

«Whether it's the Digital Picture Album or Hot Shots, each is a perfect way to share those special life moments with friend and families,» said David Joachim, Director of Marketing. «Most people typically view their digital pictures around the PC. But the Royal Digital Picture Album lets friends and families create their own favorite viewing area. They make great gifts. And grandmas and grandpas will love them.»

Available in 8-inch and 5.6-inch versions, the Digital Picture Album is simple to use and set up. Simply take the digital camera media card from a digital camera and insert it into the back of the 8-inch or 5.6-inch (diagonal) picture frame. There are no monthly fees and no computer is necessary. A slim, credit-card sized remote lets users control the display, whether it's a single picture or a complete slide show containing as many as 500-600 pictures depending upon the digital camera media card.
