July 28, 2006 — Los Angeles, CA — Digital Foci (pronounced digital foe-sigh www.digitalfoci.com) announced today that it is shipping the highly anticipated Picture Porter Elite 40GB and 80GB portable digital photo albums with built-in hard drive and memory card reader. Featuring a large 3.6″ LCD for easy viewing, Picture Porter Elite lets you instantly and securely save and view digital photos and video on its hard drive wherever you go, so you can keep snapping away and stop worrying about limited memory card space on your digital camera.
Portable Digital Photo Album
With its high-capacity hard drive, you can now carry your collection of digital photos and video with you all the time right in your pocket and relive your memories anytime, anywhere. While viewing photos on Picture Porter Elite’s bright LCD, you can rotate, zoom, pan, view EXIF and histogram information, and play slideshows. You can also connect Picture Porter Elite to a TV and share your video, photos and music with family and friends on a big screen in the comfort of your living room.
Especially valuable for vacations, trade shows, special events, parties, business presentations, and for pro photographers who take and show a large number of photos, Picture Porter Elite saves photos on its hard drive, so you don’t have to lug around a heavy laptop on the road. Picture Porter Elite takes the worry out of losing precious photos stored on easily damaged memory cards. On its large LCD viewing screen, you can clearly inspect the photos before deciding which are keepers and which need to be re-shot. Its built-in memory card slot lets you copy and archive photos without the need for cumbersome peripheral attachments or cabling.

Print Directly without a Computer or Software
Picture Porter Elite supports the PictBridge standard so you can print directly to any PictBridge compliant printer without a computer. Just connect Picture Porter Elite by USB to a PictBridge compliant printer and print photos as you view them on the Picture Porter Elite screen. Imagine the convenience of printing photos directly to your printer without the hassle of using a PC or complicated image-editing software!

Picture Porter Elite works with all popular media card formats, including CF I/II, MD, MMC, SD Card, Memory Stick, MS PRO, and MS Duo, and MS PRO Duo, so you can copy and save your precious pictures directly from just about any digital camera memory card format. While traveling with a group, you will be able to copy everybody’s digital photos onto Picture Porter Elite, regardless of the digital camera brand or model.
Keep Entire Collection of Content in One Place – Plays MP3s & Video
Picture Porter Elite is also perfect as a portable MP3 and video player — keep your entire collection of content in one place for easy access. Picture Porter Elite supports MP3, WMA, AAC, WAV music formats, and MPEG-1, MPEG-4, WMV9, and MJPEG video formats.
