And for anyone who doesn't bat an eye at the phrase,"Let me boot up my picture frame," the Pacific Digital and Wallflower machines present your photography with gasp-inducing color, clarity and size. In any case, digital photos from a digital camera have a convenient showcase in a digital picture frame. Next project: digital walls to hang it on."</i><br /><br />New York Times personal technology editor David Pogue reviews a boatload of Digital Picture frames from various vendors such as Mobi, ArtPix, Ziga, Ceiva, Pacific Digital, and Wallflower Systems. He goes into quite a bit of detail evaluating the pros and cons of each digital frame, as well as the technology as a whole. So if you're in the market for such a product, it's worth a read.
