Product Review
Kodak Smart Picture Frame
Manufacturer: Eastman Kodak Company
By Laura Blattner

This innovative digital picture frame from Kodak is a fun way to be able to display, share and enjoy those precious photos of baby! Simply insert a CompactFlash memory card from a digital camera into the slot on the back of the cherry wood finished frame, and you can view all the latest images of baby! One of the best features about this frame is the built-in slide show function. Watch up to 36 pictures rotate at an interval you select, from five seconds to a full day! By subscribing to the StoryBox network for $5 a month, you can upload, organize and store pictures, as well as share pictures directly, either to another Smart Picture Frame or to a computer via e-mail. The Smart Picture Frame is simple and easy to use, and doesn’t even require a computer, making it ideal for relatives who aren’t computer savvy. There is even a button on the back of the frame from which you can directly order prints of the pictures from Kodak. The frame also doubles as an information appliance. Keep up to date on the latest news, weather, traffic, fine art and other information. The Smart Picture frame has an internal modem and only requires your phone line to download information. The only drawback of this product is its hefty price tag -- $349.00 -- which includes a six-month subscription to the StoryBox network. Nevertheless, it is a great way to instantly share and display every little precious moment in Baby’s life!

Available at Ritz Camera, Wolf Camera, www.kodak.com and Amazon.com.
