Anyone care to recommend a simpledon digital picture frame that is small, like the size of a 5x7 photo frame, or a brand that they like. Simplicity is key, options really don't matter.

Thanks!

Paging drjeffiator........

I need to deflect this to Vcunning! (he got me one for my b-day a few weeks ago.) You just stick a thumb drive in the USB port(or load the internal memory with pics directly from your computer via the USB cable), turn it on, and push play. The brand escapes me right now

I think it's a Glade-i-Frameowitz.

It's now $34.99 before the coupon and $5 off if you enter code QIC14563 at check out. I just bought one.

It said it's $34.99 after the coupon when I clicked on it....

If you shop through Cashbaq.com you'll get 1% back. (And yeah, that's my referral link... I can vouch that you actually do get the money but you have to accumulate $15 first. Lots of options to get rebates, though... and if you don't want to use my referral link, then just type it in.) If you have the cash back program through Bill Me Later, they're giving 3% back.

Ha! When I checked through Bill Me Later just now, it comes up as $29.99 after coupon. :lol: I guess it's in the $30-$35 range. ;)

Shipping was cheap too. Only $2.68 for economy. I just hope it gets here before Xmas.

I'm not an expert. I just grabbed one at Target (and pre-loaded some shots for/of DrJeff).

The only word of advice I would share is some frames allow you to download directly from a computer. Others, you have to have a memory card. I didn't realize this at the time, but the one I got Jeff couldn't download from a computer. So I just put all the photos on a memory stick and it worked fine.

Many have features too like auto rotating and different effects.

I can't remember the brand either. There are a bazillon of them out there.

Thanks everyone. Found one under $40. I needed to get something for an office, and didn't want anything expensive, in case it's stolen. Now to load it up, wrap it and put it under the tree...

Got the Viewsonic for my grandmother for Christmas and it arrived today. 1 pixel is out. How badly do you think an 85 year old woman will notice? :(

Mine just came in, the pics fine but the buttons pretty much suck. No biggie though my mom will probably have me set it up for her and not touch it again.

How did you manage to see one bad pixel? :eek: Your eyes are much better than mine. :lol:
