Review: GiiNii Artforme 7 inch Digital Picture Frame
Written on Jan 18, 2010 by Malcolm Reynolds and filed under Featured, GiiNii, Reviews
One of the side effects to reviewing many different digital picture frames is that I start to expect more and more from a typical picture frame. The latest digital media frames handle photos, video, music, and stream content via Wi-Fi. That’s why I was amazed to see the affordable GiiNii ArtForme Digital Picture Frame (model GN-705W) keeps things surprisingly simple. This picture frame is just a picture frame … nothing more and nothing less.
Review: Sony DPF-V1000

Digital photo frames can usually be separated out into two categories; basic but affordable and high-end with interesting features. The Sony DPF-V1000 takes the digital picture frame one step further, showing pictures not only on its 10.2” screen but on your HDTV through a HDMI port. Sony has you covered if you like to have a picture frame showing off a gallery of pictures throughout the week, but also if you want to show off slideshows during parties on the big screen. Priced at $250 this model costs quite a bit more than competing models making us wonder if the features justify the price.
