Digital Fridge Magnet is Underwhelming
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "Digital Home Hardware & Accessories" @ 12:00 AM
"Photos and magnets have become the ultimate fridge accessories, with smiley snaps of your friends and family adorning fridges across the land. So it makes sense that someone has had the bright idea to combine the two with the Fridge Magnet Photo Frame. No longer will your fridge be restricted to just a few photos, as this mini digi-frame can store up to 66 of them and scroll through them at whatever speed you desire between 5 and 80 seconds. It has 32MB of internal memory, supports JPG, GIF and BMP images, has both automatic and manual image change modes, and will scroll away happily through your photos for up to 11 hours from a single charge. A very bright idea that ensures you'll never tire of the photos on your fridge ever again."
A good idea...almost. If you have to charge it every 11 hours, it seems more trouble than it is worth. Maybe a motion sensor so it is only on when someone is nearby would give you a couple of weeks of power.
