Hi
I am looking for a digital picture frame (the bigger - the better, right
now I am looking for 12" or 15").
The frame should load images from SD card and - now comes the most
important feature: Show images on the SD card (slideshow) in a **truely
random order**. By truely random I mean each time I turn the frame on and
the slideshow starts the images are most likely in a different order (aka
random) than when I run the slideshow before.
Sounds normal - it's not at this time (at least it seems to me, that
manufacturers have a pretty different understanding of the word random).

Of course it would not hurt to have extra features, but a **random**
slideshow is the most important for me, thinking that I actually want to
see not only the first 50 images of let's say 6000 on the SD card.

Any suggestions?

Olaf

How about a 27"?

Do want to qualify your request with additional parameters like, say
cost?

Or any PC running Windows 7 with the desktop set to slideshow :-)

Hi,

well, the pricerange is not the most important at this time. I am just
trying to evaluate which companies and which frames can do this at all.
Or course: The cheaper the better, SD card, random (!) slideshow and at
least 12" - no fancy stuff needed (=wlan, webserver,time/calendar...)

iPad is not an option. IF you ask for a price range, it should be less than
US$ 200 - or let's say 150 Euros
