Home telephones are always pretty boring, well designer Tao Ma may have the answer with this digital photo frame with integrated telephone.

When not in use, the device works just like a normal digital photo frame displaying your favourite pictures.

Remove the handset from the frame and a digital keypad appears on the touchscreen of the frame for you to make your call.

The frame can also recognise who is calling you and display a photo of the person calling.

This is a great concept, lets hope some manufacturer spots it and puts them into production, as I would much rather look at this than my boring house phone.
