Whenever I want to show photos while away from home I use my iPod. However the screen is too small for detailed viewing and I don't want to have to carry a laptop.

Any ideas on how to show the photos using a small (larger than iPod screen) photo viewer??

there's some pretty small laptop computers around.

The ones I've looked at are wide panel and do not display photos correctly...and I don't do Windozzzz...

What do you mean they don't display the photos correctly? Pictures don't get stretched when displayed in a screen with different ratio.
If I had the money, I'd go for a Macbook Air... "Between 0.16 to 0.76 inch thin and weighing only 3.0 pounds".
 
What about one of those digital picture frames. Not sure if any of those would be a suitable size.
 
I use a Archos 30GB Portable DVR/Music/AVI/Photo player. About $400 for the one I have but it dosent use its own software, it uses Windows Media Player to upload files via the sync feature.
 
I take small Itoya books with me. I make "actual" prints and put them in the books.

Wow....tangible prints.

What a great idea!!

The ones I've looked at make the photos look unnatural and they use Windows..
 
In most cases a laptop is with me. The last trip I took without a laptop, I used an Epson P-2000. It's been sitting fairly idle lately, so if you're interested it's close to LN condition with box and accessories.

This is a nice unit which I used to own but it is not compat with Leopard. Epson only has drivers for the Power PC Mac.
 
Hmmm. Not running leopard at home, but the Epson driver for the P-2000 does not list support for 10.5. I've sent them an email, but no response yet. Glad to hear that it's working for you.
