Photty, an LCD picture frame keyring

Kairen's Photty keychain includes a 1.5" LCD display and 16MB of memory, enough to hold about 140 128x128 pixel pictures. At $35, it's a cool stocking stuffer, but not available in the west. CrunchGear exhorts Gizmine to get them in, pronto!

Maybe that specific product is not available in the 'West' but similar products are and have been for some time. E.g.

This is a rip-off... They sell these at my supermarket for $14.99 CAD, and you can buy them super-cheap at chinavasion.com and other crapvendors.

$35? They sell these for $10 at dealextreme.com (Hong Kong)

Great! I can carry all my favorite LiveJournal icons with me wherever I go! Also: bonus points for dirty-sounding name.

At last, someone who appreciates art.

You can get one here with an OLED (!) display, 8MB of Memory which should be about 170 128x128 photos according to my calculations ((8 * 1048576) / (128 * 128 * 30)), LiPoly battery, weighs 90g, and costs a stunning (!) 18,90€, which at the moment calculates to USD 24,66.

FYI: You can find similar keychains, with lower memory for 19 bucks at CVS.

But those are not called Photty.
