Recommend me a Digital Photo Frame!

Hey guys! My girlfriend's birthday is just around the corner, and naturally I have no idea what to get her. Actually, that's a lie. I want to get her a digital photo frame, but I literally know NOTHING about them. I'm pretty tech smart, but I've never really looked into these devices before.

Anyway, she has ASSLOADS of digital photos on her computer, and since she never gets to actually see them unless she browses for them, I thought this would be an awesome gift because she could put her favorites on display to see all the time. So anyway, here is a list of key points about it:

-I am willing to spend around $150. Maybe a LITTLE more but definitely no more than $200.

-I don't give a shit about it playing mp3's. Who needs that anyway?

-Internal Memory? What's that even for? Can't I just put pictures on a little 2Gig SD card and stick it in the frame so it has 2gigs of photos instead of a tiny 128mb of internal memory? If that's the case, I have no need for interal storage.

-I'd like a nice looking frame, and although she isn't computer illiterate it would help for the frame's functions to be somewhat easily-navigable.

-I want picture display quality to be the most important characteristic.

Remember, this gift shows how much I love her ;) While that's not "necessarily" true, there are certain advantages and rewards for doing an awesome job on her gift I'd rather have. Thanks in advance everybody!

    I can't recommend any in particular, but Newegg sells quite a few of them. Check 'em out here. If you click "top-rated" on the left side, that'll give you a good idea. Since Newegg has their awesome customer review setup, that should help you decide. Their top-rated Kodak frame looks like it might be good for you, and it's less than $150.

    Edit: Actually, the Samsung SPF-83H that they have looks like a better choice resolution-wise, and the 3 reviews are very positive. Price is currently $150.

    I don't believe it - I'm on my THIRD PS3, and my FIRST XBOX360. What the heck?
