Digital Picture frames

[banslug]

I don't own one of these, and I'm completely clueless when it comes to these frames. I have NO idea about price, what size picture is decent, etc. I'm shopping for Christmas gifts for the grand parents, who are extremely hard to buy for, but I found THIS ONE:

And I think DFIL and DMIL would LOVE this with pictures of my boys. Is this a good price? What about the 3.5" size picture??? (not to mention, it's free shipping)

THANKS!

The price is great! The 3.5" size is a little small, but still good for the price.

Here is a review of the frame, and it seems to be a decent one.

The one caution I would give is that it seems to be slightly cumbersome to actually get the pictures on the frame. If your ILs are pretty tech savvy, transferring from computer to memory card, memory card to frame is not a big deal, but if they are unwilling to learn new things this could be a problem.
I do not own the frame, but for the price I think a good buy.

I love my digital picture frame. It's a wonderful conversation piece.

It has a slot for a memory card so there is no transferring to be done. It's simple.

I do think 3.5 is too small. I would go with at least a 5 x 7 size.
