Anyone any experience of these? It's to be a pressie for the in laws.

When I saw them as they first came out the smallest size frames were going for £100+ and so I didn't take a second look - I would have rather dropped a CD/DVD of images in the lounge DVD player and had them on the TV... but as you asked I had another look and noticed that they dropped in price by an okay amount.

Found these:

<a href="http://www.play.com/Search.aspx?searcht ... x=0&go.y=0" target="_blank">Play.com</a>

<a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h ... .y=0&Go=Go" target="_blank">Amazon</a>

What I'd be curious about is whether the sizes mentioned is that of the actual display, or the entire frame.

Just be a nutter... life becomes much more exciting, and people won't expect anything more of you...

Ta Claw....I'm not so sure about what the size represents either.

The thing is they are good as a picture frame. I have heard lots say that they are a lot of money when you can view pictures on PC/TV. But it's like the difference between your old photo albums (which you rarely, if ever, look at) and photos you have in frames around the house.

Strange thing really....I eventually decided on <a href="http://www.tecno.co.uk/Store/s47133/0/M ... x=1&comp=n" target="_blank">This One</a>.

...which is £150 on Jessops site. Now Jessops site is laid out remarkably similar to the Tecno site even down to all the despatch methods and most of the products and prices. I was fully expecting a phone call saying the price was wrong, but it arrived today...I let you know about quality. Might get one for myself as this was a pressie.

Would be interested to hear how it is as my sister wants us to get one for our mum and dad. We had been looking at a philips one but I've heard the software is awful.
