If Mom has jumped on the technology bandwagon, why not let her impress all her girlfriends with the Kodak ESP 7 All-in-One printer? Or, if it's something better kept than given, use these gift ideas to really wow her:
- Scan her favourite crafts and print as an 8x10 photo so it’ll last forever
- Make a collage with all of her favorite photos
- Make a personalized card to tell her how special she is.
For the Eco-Friendly Mom
If the environment is something that's on Mom's mind, it should also be noted that the KODAK ESP 7 All-in-One (AiO) Printer saves an average of $110 a year on ink. (The cartridges are only $9.99 for black and $14.99 for colour!)
The All-in-One features a large 3” colour LCD display along with memory card and USB slots to view, edit and print without a computer. It is also enabled for Wi-Fi and Ethernet-connected printing and includes a duplexer for two-sided printing.
For the Sociable Mom
But, if plain old photos aren't really Mom's thing why not try telling her you love her with a KODAK EasyShare wireless digital frame? You can preload it with memorable family photos and video straight from the computer and leave it somewhere she can always see it. By the couch, next to the bed, or at her desk, it's a way for her to be thinking of loved ones always.
