Abstract

The invention comprises a video framed electronic frame display screen with a touch screen LCD, a power supply, a microprocessor, a memory component, video and audio input and output jacks adaptable to DVD and VCR players, cameras and mp3 players, and speakers. The video frame can contain a camera. The video frame display screen can be controlled by operation of the touch screen display or by a remotely operated infrared controller. The video frame display screen can also be controlled by a mouse and keyboard connected to the video frame.

Claims
