 NB>>> what they probably would have preferred was your sending them a
 NB>>> package of all the pictures printed out so that they could put them
 NB>>> into scrapbooks... or better yet, the completed scrapbooks.... :)
 BM>> They would have preferred, I might have complied if not for the
 BM>> shipping cost, especially overseas.  Plus it seems a box undergoes
 BM>> inspection by Austria Post and possibly subject to the 'I will accept
 BM>> the package' documentation like what happened with the digital picture
 BM>> frame I sent my Aunt (she says she signed the paperwork but ended up
 BM>> being returned and I brought over in my luggage last summer).
 NB>> Yes, I remember that fiasco... Probably would have had to carry over
 NB>> the scrapbook for your aunt.... although you'd be ok for shipping one
 NB>> to your mother, USPS being a little less bureaucratic, perhaps... ;)
 BM> Yes, seems I can ship just about anything to NH.  "You said a case of
 BM> loose bullets, sir?  I'll just put this 'Rattle OK' sticker on the box." 
 
Maybe that's just a bit farther than they'd actually go... ;)

 NB>> Ah, well... You'll just have to give them personal demonstrations/
 NB>> hands on lectures when you visit them, I guess.... with a little
 NB>> exposure to actually using the picture frames, they might decide it's
 NB>> not quite so arcane after all... :)
 BM> Possibly!  Last summer my Mother did have the frame out and she has
 BM> seen the vacation pictures but had not seen a different presentation on
 BM> a second thumbdrive (pictures and short videos my Mother would have
 BM> been interested in but not my Aunt).  We never did get around to seeing
 BM> them: my Mother too tired or too busy or not enough time or....

Another visit, perhaps... 

 BM> As for my Aunt, I don't know if my Mother showed my Aunt or what.  My
 BM> Mother was staying with my Aunt in her apartment (I was in the hotel a
 BM> couple blocks away).  Early in the vacation I was going to show and it
 BM> was a 'later'; admittedly after a while I forgot about it.

Again... maybe another visit.... ;)
