Overview

The Digital Photo Display Ornament allows you to store over 50 photos and display them as a slideshow or as individual stills on the Christmas ornament's miniature LCD screen.

Yes, this product requires that you install a tiny piece of software on your computer. The software is Windows-only and merely resizes copies of your photos (your originals won't be harmed) and transfers them to the ornament via the included USB port.

Christmas photo ornament is easy to use

Yes, there is software to install (Windows only). But, it takes about 3 minutes and no, it will not take over your computer and send copies of your ranting instant messaging sessions to your boss. The software is very easy to use. Simply find the photos you want to put onto the ornament and hit the "transfer" button. That's really all there is to it. Oh, you will have to connect the USB cable from the ornament to your computer (cable is included).

The Digital Photo Christmas Ornament is easy to use and looks fantastic.

Several viewing modes included

You can set your Digital Photo Ornament to show one photo (perhaps of a new baby) or to cycle through a slideshow of photos (perhaps it's a slideshow of 50 photos of the same baby in the same outfit doing basically the same thing in each photo). It even has the ability to shut itself off in a set number of minutes in order to save battery power (requires 2 AAA which are not included).

A few notes about image quality

Please keep in mind that the image quality of the mini LCD screen on the Digital Photo Ornament is not the same as your high definition television (it doesn't cost nearly as much, either). The image quality is pretty darned good considering it's an ornament, but don't expect it to look like an iPhone screen. The pictures look like they were taken on a cell phone camera. The point of the Digital Photo Ornament isn't to replace real photographs or replace an LCD picture frame. The point is to hang some wonderful holiday moments on your tree in a decorative fashion. And in that respect, the Digital Photo Ornament kicks the iPhone's butt.
