JOBO has announced a 7″ portable photo viewer with 1GB of internal memory capable of storing up to 10,000 images. The JOBO X7 Portable Photo Viewer is designed for photographers or anyone who wants to show off their favorite pictures on a nice portable display.
“Sharing photos with family and friends is a compelling motivation for today’s digital photographers,” said Johannes Bockemühl, CEO of JOBO. “With the announcement of the portable X7 Portable Photo Viewer, JOBO is making it easier than ever for photographers to share their digital files wherever and whenever they want to.”
Digital pictures can be transferred to the JOBO X7 via CF, SD, MMC, MS, MS Pro or xD memory card or USB connection to a computer. When images are transferred via memory card the X7 automatically creates a new folder for each set of images transferred from a memory card. These folders can be left as-is or they can be renamed and sorted via USB connection to a computer. This capability allows users to organize and display specific slideshows according to subjects just as vacation, birthday, wedding etc.
The X7 displays digital pictures full-screen, as individual thumbnail views or in a slideshow format featuring user-selectable transition effects. The X7 also displays time as well as a calendar and can be powered on and off automatically by a timer.
