I must admit I don't fully see the utility of these frames. Do you hang it up somewhere with a fixed pic or a slide show? Either way it gets boring after a while. What about the power cord, specially if it goes on the wall? I am afraid it may end up in a drawer somewhere just like the real albums.
So somebody like you probably shouldn't get one. I couldn't see the value of them for quite a while, either, but then I was going through some old slides that I'd scanned several years ago. I really enjoy looking at those pictures, but they're a bit like those photo albums in the closet - I rarely get them out. That's when I began to think about a digital picture frame, and I'm getting ready to order one. I do have a place I could put one where I'd see it often throughout the day, so I'll see how it goes. I'm going to be doing slide shows, and I bet I wind up with several different folders of pictures, sorted by subject.
