I bought my mum one of those digital photo frames for christmas. She has a camera which takes XD cards but the photo frame takes just about every format other than XD. MY mum doesnt have a computer, so she cant convert them onto another card herself. Can you get adapters to convert XD cards to SD or something which would fit? The ones I think i may have found on google, seems to cost £30-40, is this right?

Does the photo frame have USB. Might be worth trying a cheap USB XD card reader.

If the frame has USB it will be for connecting to a PC, it won't be able to operate in "master" mode to allow the frame to communicate with another device. You can get wee converter boxes to allow it to work but they're probably at least the same kind of money as an XD to blah adapter.

thanks for the usb heads up. Iirc it hasn't got one anyway. I think I've found an xd to compact flash adapter for less than a tenner
