We've been pretty clear about our opinion of digital photo frames, but credit where credit is due... Kodak's stepping it up a notch with their new P720, M820 and M1020 Easyshare digital frames. How? Same way everyone else is: touch-screen controls. Sorta.
Basically you've got the same audo/visual features as before with 128MB onboard memory, in 7, 8 or 10 inch frames, only now Kodak's Quick-Touch interface lets you skip through the pics of relatives you don't like just by sliding your finger across the boarder. That also activates the aforementioned touch-screen controls... except they're not actually touch-screen controls. In order to prevent you from smudging your pictures every time you go mucking around with them, the controls are all located on the frame itself, corresponding to the icons that show up on the screen.
Okay, points for putting some thought into this. And if you're worried about yours going on the blink at some point in the next three years, you can put a SquareTrade warranty on it for not a lot of cash.
They're due out on April 16, tagged between $120 and $230.
