New York Times Article Reviews Seven Wireless/Digital Picture Frames

David Pogue of the New York Times wrote a fascinating article last week about how technology constantly improves itself. He says, and he’s spot-on right, that “Every fast, slick and successful product today has a crude, expensive and annoying ancestor.”

He then goes on to say that wireless/digital picture frames have improved drastically over the years, in almost every possible category and aspect. Please click over to Mr. Pogue’s article; he gives his honest opinion of seven wireless/digital picture frames.

The Kodak EasyShare EX-811: Wireless and Wonderful!

I once read, in a magazine about home decor, that it simply wasn’t proper to display family photos randomly around one’s home. According to this very posh magazine, visitors simply would not be interested in seeing pictures of your children and your cat and your Costa Rica vacation.

To this magazine, I say simply this: Balderdash.

Whenever I visit someone, I LOVE to look at their family pictures! I don’t know anyone who doesn’t, in fact. Of course, many people take it a bit too far, and every possible quarter-inch of table space is covered with picture frames of various sizes and shapes, all needing to be dusted and all falling down whenever the front door slams.

My suggestion to everyone on the planet? Go wireless, and get yourselves a Kodak EasyShare EX-811. They’ve got an 8-inch and a 10-inch. Both are GREAT!

Now, digital picture frames are cool, but wireless digital picture frames are absolutely HOT! The Kodak wireless frame is ready to go right out of the box. It only takes a few minutes for the frame to locate and connect to your wireless connection, and then just stand back and watch this baby go! You can control it with the remote, with is also wireless.

Both Kodak wireless frames also play your music. Think of your own personal photos, complete with soundtrack, slideshowing on this attractive frame. It’ll attract a bigger crowd than the season finale of “‘Scrubs,” playing on your big-screen tv!

According to Katherine Boehret, of the Mossberg Solution, “. . . this week, I tested Eastman Kodak Co.’s first entry in to the Wi-Fi frame category: the $230 Kodak EasyShare EX-811 Digital Frame. This frame, which will be available next week, can wirelessly tap into photos stored on Kodak’s popular photo-sharing website, EasyShare Gallery, and can also discover photos, videos, and music stored on networked computers.”

Go ahead and click on Boehret’s link; her article will give you some really useful facts and information about her experience with the Kodak EX-811. It’s PictBridge-enabled, so you can even print pictures without a computer! And if you want to change your frame’s “look,” you can change the faceplate. (that’s an option, by the way.)

Put it on the tabletop or hang it on the wall. Either way, the Kodak EasyShare EX-811 will become the focal point of any room.

And just think: now you’ll only have one picture frame to dust! NEXT WEEK, folks. Next week.
