Living Image 15" Memory VIEW Photo Frame

Advantages: Customizable faceplates, integrated loudspeakers
Disadvantages: low memory

...Kodak Faceplate / Glass 10" 1797893 is a digital photo frame which is a cost-effective alternative to many other digital photo frames. Kodak is an American based company, which started off producing imaging and photographic materials and equipment. In the fourth quarter of 2000 Kodak launched their very first digital photo frame, the initial price of the first digital photo frame was $349 (£176). This particular digital photo frame has a screen resolution of 800 x 480 pixels, which is next to nothing compared to the pixels you get from the more expensive photo frames.
