We stayed at Harrah's. Upon check-in, I noticed digital picture frames at each station.

The only drawbacks of this PowerPoint sign approach are:

  • Signs can only be updated through a multi-step process (imagine finding a typo and then having to edit the PowerPoint, convert to DVD, burn the DVD, and then swap the DVD into the player)
  • There is no possibility for adding video to the signs.
  • Digital photo frames are still on the small side… probably too small for anything but a countertop display.
  • There are no analytics about the number of time each slide is displayed.
