‘Tis the season of the digital photo frame. Whether you’re shopping at Bed Bath & Beyond or Linens ‘n Things or at specialty sites like digiframes.com, these nifty gadgets are all the rage and make perfect gifts, especially if you load them up with photos before wrapping. The concept is simple: Each frame can store as few as 20 or as many as 60 digital photos. The photos can appear in a ”slideshow” mode or can be displayed one at a time for however long you choose. For example, a 7-inch digital frame from Philips ($154.99) stores 50 pictures and has a built-in memory card reader. The brightness is adjustable, and photos can be rotated 90, 180, or 270 degrees. At Bed Bath & Beyond, for example, they have 7 styles of frames, from a pricey 15″ one with a remote control and MP3 playing capability (you can give your family photos a theme song) for $300 to a small travel alarm clock that holds 60 pictures, for $30. Sharper Image has 13 styles, and they’ve cut the prices on four of them, including $90 off an 8″ one with 512 MB of memory that holds 100 pictures and has a calendar function (schedule the days you want to look at certain pictures), speakers for music or movies and an alarm clock function. It costs $230. At Brookstone they offer 9 styles of digital frames, including an interesting man’s wallet that has a digital photo viewer that holds 50 images, for $50. unusual looking Grandparents don’t have to stash photos of the grandkids in their wallets anymore, thanks to the Royal Digital Picture Key Chain ($19.99). With its 1.1-inch display and rechargeable battery, it holds up to 56 photos. The credit-card-size Wallet Pix Digital Photo Album ($29.99) functions in a similar way and can be tucked into a wallet or purse. It comes in black and white and has its own stand and USB cable. Showing off cute pictures of those kiddos has never been easier.
