Ceiva is OK. I used to use it with my Grandmother. It was a pain before they added email support. Ceiva does allow multiple albums which is nice. Ceiva also comes with a price. Last time I checked the frame was around $200 and the “service” was $100 a year.

Picwing looks like just a $249 upfront fee for the frame. No service fee after that. The nice thing is that it works with the Chumby – for free.

I have been using a networked Ceiva frame in this same manner for some time. Ceiva allows me to upload photos from my desktop to other frames for which I have access. Same concept here. http://www.ceiva.com

[...] TechCrunch pointed out that while most digital photo frames are priced around $100-$200 the Picwing photo frame has a whopping $249 price tag. The screen on the picture frame is also only 7-inches big. If grandma lives down the street you might be better served to buy her a bigger cheaper frame and then update photos when you go for a visit. [...]

I think people showing comparable products are funny. Kodak is not going to iterate weekly or monthly. They won’t incrementally integrate with many of the other website out there. These guys will own this space and these big companies or nameless Asian OEMs have no clue.

Mike, how can you say that the social aspect of digital picture frames is not developped yet? Ever heard of CEIVA frames? They’ve been around since 2001 and do MUCH more than this crap.

The future of what these guys are doing is huge. Wifi connected Hardware with great software seems like the place to be as the web becomes more integrated with our real world lives.

it is so hard to find a digital photo frame that can hook up to my flickr account or whatever photo sharing site. My goal is to send a digital photo frame to my grandparents and all they have to do is plug it in, connect to their wifi, and shows them photos of their grandkids. What is the UI like on the picwing frame? Can u share a video review of the product?

Hi everyone,

There are most definitely other competitors in this field. Not having any would be a bad indication of the market that we are in. After all, nature abhors a vacuum. We believe that we hold an advantage over others simply through better software on the web and on the photo frame itself. In the same way that the iPod+iTunes pair turned out to be a killer combination that forever changed the MP3 player market, we hope that we can do the same with photo frames.

[...] TechCrunch has highlighted a startup called Picwing, one of Y Combinator’s many web services demoed yesterday. Some look pretty cool, and that praise may extend to this picture frame, which is essentially a social, cloud-based slideshow viewer at this point. Basically, you set up the service and set options for allowing friends and family to add photos to the mix. The idea of having a couple of these in the family, all showing similar photo sets at different locations, is really nice. [...]
