I guess these are cool but there's something odd about watching a digital slideshow of your photos in a picture frame - but maybe that's only because we're not used to it. There's a bunch of functionality built in: zooming, cropping, setting transitions and delays, browsing through libraries or creating slideshows - even adding music. So basically it sounds like a computer but without a keyboard as a distraction. I think the traditional wood frame, however, is a bit too weird, but I would like to see one in action.

I do think these digital picture portables are cool, however. They're able to store 56 pictures and you can browse or set up a slideshow. Not bad at $59.99 a pop.
