Pocket-Sized Gadgets Let Users Show Off Photos
We tested Kodak's new $150 EasyShare Picture Viewer, which will hit store shelves on May 20, and Apple Computer's $29 iPod Camera Connector, which came out in March and works with the iPod Photo music player -- either the 30-gigabyte ($349) model or the 60-gigabyte ($449) version.
...It's just a small, white adapter that plugs into the base of your iPod Photo on one end and has a USB port on the other end, therefore allowing you to attach your digital camera via a USB cord.
...Then, after she attached our camera's USB cord and turned on the camera and iPod, the iPod's screen showed the number of photos on our camera's memory card (21) and the total size of those files (38.1 megabytes).
...Unlike the way Apple's Camera Connector works with the iPod Photo, you cannot directly offload images from your camera or memory card onto the Picture Viewer.
