If there would be a way to load about 100 family pictures into a reader along with her favorite books, I think it would be a great going away present...
Please let me know what you think?
Thank you all so much,

Perhaps a tablet (Android or Apple) would be a better choice. Even the newer colour ereaders with a Kaleido screen look more like a comic book than a display I could consider acceptable for a photo display.

Pretty much any eInk display requires power only when changing the display so the display will be visible during sleep or power off.
