Magpix's $99 Palm-Sized Digital Picture Frame
True, it looks like someone cracked off and framed the swing-out digital viewfinder from the back of a digital camera, but for those of us who balk at those digital picture frames that cost closer to $500 plus a monthly fee, the Magpix Pocket Photo Album may be a refreshing alternative.

$99 gets you the framed 1.5 inch LCD with a scant 16MBs of memory, but you can bump it up thanks to the SD/MultiMediaCard slot. Plus, when you consider how small the display is, you can probably load thousands of smaller sized thumbnails and still have a world of decent-looking photos in your palm.

Bottom Line: Definitely not for a power user, but would make a cute gift pre-loaded with pics for someone not as tech savvy, or just as a fun novely item.

Picked one up as a possible gift. Figured it would make a cute little e-photo album gift for grandparents.

The screen is nice and bright and surprisingly good resolution. A little jog-dial on top lets you flip between pics.

Havent ran thru batteries yet. Not a bad little toy :-)

For you, Alice, anything!

I'll try to break it over the weekend and see if I can write something up :-)



 
Nice! Looking forward to it. --Alice
