I would like to buy a digital photo frame as a gift for xmas, and have seen a 7" one here at the very reasonable price of £49.99 :
http://www.redsave.com/products/7_Inch_Digital_Photo_Frame?18,57900

However it looks like this:

.....but I would prefer it looked like this:

......but at the same price as the first one!!

The link to the first one gives the spec as having a resolution of 480 x 320, which seems higher than others I've seen in this lower price range, but it doesn't have any internal memory or battery.

Have members any personal recommendation as to price and specification with any recent purchase you have made for one of these budget digital photo frames?

Many thanks for reading, eagerly awaiting a reply.

Rick.

Hi Gary,
Many thanks for the reply. The link you posted looks pretty good, it even includes three interchangeable faceplates and internal memory, well 20 photos anyway. The screen resolution is lower though at 480 x 234 pixels. Did you see the review you referred to on the net or in computer active magazine? The reason I ask is because I don't know the manufacturer of the one I found at redsave.
Thanks again, Rick.
