There are loads of similar but cheaper portable 12V TV devices around now. I haven't looked into it recently but I bet some will do slideshows from some sort of memory device, and will give you a lot more besides, for not a whole lot more than a simple picture frame.
Here are some examples, not necessarily recommending the site, just examples.

FWIW my parents were given a (very cheap I suspect, unknown brand with un-intelligible instructions) picture frame, which simply upped and died last weekend as we were viewing some pics.
Looks good but too expensive.





I saw this one in comet today which the pictures looked clear on and it seemed pretty good. But they didn't have any in stock!
