Skyla Memoir Digital Photo Frame Has In-Built Photo Scanner

Looks like digital photo frames are beginning to move from nice-to-haves to actually quite useful: Skyla's Memoir photo frame has an in-built 600dpi scanner so it'll digitize your hardcopy photo archive for you. It's got a 1GB memory, apparently good for about 200 4 x 6-inch prints (the maximum size the scanner can take). Plus it's a respectable 800 x 600-pixel 4:3 ratio screen, and has two USB ports so you can sync the frame to your PC and plug in flash drives and the like. Not too shabby at all for $220 when it comes out in December. [GearLog via OhGizmo]

A composer moves opera into the future

Often called America's greatest living composer, John Adams says he wrote his memoir, "Hallelujah Junction: Composing an American Life," for the next generation of musicians, the 20-year-olds struggling with doubt about the viability of a life in art. The Berkeley-based musician wants them to know it is possible to survive the drubbings of a pioneer relatively intact. "We ignore the good reviews and fret about the bad ones," he laughs.

What Just Happened

Movies about moviemaking constitute a virtual cinematic genre; there are far more of them made now than either musicals or westerns. Robert De Niro played Monroe Stahr, a fictionalised version of the MGM producer Irving Thalberg, in the Elia Kazan version of Scott Fitzgerald's The Last Tycoon. He now plays a fictionalised version of producer Art Linson in a film adapted by Linson from his memoir What Just Happened, subtitled 'Bitter Hollywood Tales From the Front Line'.
