The DPP-FP67 and the DPP-FP97 Digital Portable Photo Printers. They both allow for printing 4 by 6-inch photos on demand. Both printers have LCD screens, so you are able to edit and adjust your snaps before you print. Printing takes around 60 seconds per picture. The main difference between the models is that the DPP-FP97 along with printing the regular media files also features a HDMI port and supports Compact Flash. I look forward to seeing these in the shops. They are set to hit the shelves in May, hopefully in time to take some lovely photos of the summer, if it ever comes!!

Used in cameras etc. SD – HC, HC stands for High Capacity can offer drives up to two terabytes in size, but currently these are limited to 32Gb drives. They are available in a range of sizes. I found i could use a drive from my old camera and decided to test it out.

Here are a couple of pics of my Eeepc next to my work laptop, and a pic of me downloading GIMP which is a free image editing software available on the net, which i used to edit the pics before uploading to my blog!

It worked no issues at all. I have ordered my own drive from the net.

The basic rule of thumb is to get the biggest most expensive memory card you can, you want one with a good read/write time as we are going to be using this for more than just transferring images. I intend to use one to store my music and movies on. 8Gb SD Cards are available at around £20 which will be more than enough for me for the moment!

Installation is easy, just remove the memory card blank, supplied with the pc from the slot on the right hand site and insert you memory card. Your computer should auto detect the new memory as removable storage and allow you to start using it in a matter of seconds. To remove, just press the card in and a spring should push it out enough for you to pull it out.

Happy net-booking!
