Amazing - Electronic Photo Frame
Last Monday, I purchased a digital photo frame from Costco (Digital Spectrum 10.4" Digital Frame MemoryVue MV-1040Plus, on sale at my local Costco for $170, less than the online price). I finally got around to setting it up Thursday night about 8 pm. I was so impressed - AMAZED! actually - with the brightness and image quality that I went back to Costco that night and bought a 2nd one for home.
This frame does NOT need to be connected to a computer to work, just needs to be plugged in to an electrical outlet and many different types of camera memory cards will work with it, including USB flash drives. I am using 4gb and 8gb USB flash drives in mine, after downloading thousands of images on to them. It plays the photos in a slide show when turned on. We're using the Patriot 8GB Flash Drive, Model PSF8GUSB, from NewEgg.
Think about getting one of these digital photo frames for your self. WARNING - it is VERY distracting - I have to turn the one in my office off or I have a hard time getting anything done.
This would make a wonderful gift (my siblings and I are going to give our Dad one with an 8gb USB flash drive loaded with thousands of family photos - Shsssshhhhhh).
And if you need to get old photos and slides scanned on to DVDs, we recommend ScanCafe, which scans photos at 600 dpi and slides at 3000 dpi, performs automatic dust and scratch removal, lets you select only the images you want (online), and then returns your photos with a DVD containing your scanned images. Highly Recommended.
