If you are in the market for a wireless/digital picture frame – and I really hope you are! – Coolest Gadgets.com has posted an excellent list, in chart form, of many wireless/digital picture frames, complete with descriptions, general features, special features, and prices.
I’ve posted here before about the 8″ eStarling wireless/digital picture frame, but now, it seems that eStarling has made some exciting changes and added a really cool feature for those of us who are into social networking! Your 8″ widescreen eStarling picture frame with black piano finish can now be linked directly to your Facebook account!
Once you get your eStarling wireless/digital frame set up, anyone you share your account with can send pictures to the frame. Don’t worry about getting spam – only the email addresses you specify can send you stuff.
Your frame has its own email address, and automatically checks for updates ever few minutes (or whenever you tell it to!) The pictures emailed to your frame will be put in rotation the same way your Flickr or Photobucket pictures are. You can even add or delete pictures with the control panel!
I still believe that FrameChannel, which also works well with both Facebook AND MySpace, is the way to go for RSS subscriptions for your wireless digital picture frame, but this frame is a pretty fine deal, too.

Please click over to Mr. Pogue’s article; he gives his honest opinion of seven wireless/digital picture frames. He tell us why these frames are superior, and he’s also not afraid to make some suggestions.
