October 28, 2008 Parrot has collaborated with French artist Martin Szekely for its latest digital photo frame offering - Specchio. The frame sports a range of connection options including Wi-Fi but its unique feature remains hidden until it's switched off - rather than showing a blank screen the Specchio becomes a minimalist mirror.

In addition to Wi-Fi, the frame supports Bluetooth®, mini-USB, SD cards and NFC - Near Field Communication, which enables wireless upload of pics direct from a mobile phone.

An email address link also means the Specchio can automatically receive pictures sent to you by your friends as well as those that are uploaded onto community sites.

The Parrot Specchio digital photo frame by Martin Szekely carries a recommended retail price of £300.
