NEW: Simple But Stellar Digital Picture Frames from Cagic

We're always looking for new aesthetic in the digital picture frame world... too many plastic, black rectangles out there. Cagic has just entered the market with an 8.4-inch digital picture frame featured in birch, mahogany and black. It looks good and feels good--substantial metal and wood materials. The best things about this frame are the included 1GB memory card, touch-matting technology (the silver matte has touch controls, not the actual screen) for operating the frame and of course the birch look. Where it lacks luster? No remote control, wi-fi, audio or video capability. But that's the Cagic mission--to keep it simple and focus on high quality function and design. Connects to your computer or camera via USB. You can purchase at Cagic for $179.99. For that price, we'd like to see some more functionality, but if aesthetic is your end game, looks like you're going to have to cough up.
