Conclusion

The dash is a great device, which I must admit I found myself using constantly after doing the review. It is the evolution of the digital picture frame with purpose. Allowing the user to not only view picture from various sources on the web; with connectivity to video , movies, news and much more. The dash is a young device but i can see it going places, with different version and may even lend itself to portability in the future. But for now if you are looking for an internet capable devices to use around the home ( kitchen, bedroom etc), the dash is the device for you.
