- A unique product that almost delivers
This review is for the 8x10 frame. First it should be noted that the Frame is 8x10 not the screen. The screen is actually 6.5 x 8.5. The product is solid and feels sturdy. It has the ability to be used as either a stand alone frame or hung on a wall. Pictures are entered into the frame via a USB port that connects to either a computer or a card reader. The display is nice but you need to stand back a few feet to appreciate it as it looks washed out up close. The image definitely leans towards the darker side but nothing that would be considered distracting. It also has a nice side angle viewpoint. The product ships with a program called Digital Pixmaster which is where you can create slideshows with text, WAV files and transitions. Pictures can be displayed for various time lengths from 5 seconds to 8 hours. You can also rotate the image orientation picture by pictrue. The real disappointment is in the way the program handles text and .WAV files. First, there is no control over font, size or position of text. It appears as a black bar with white text at the bottom of the picture. Secondly, the WAV files attach to the individual picture and not to the slideshow thus making it impractical to play background music throughout a slideshow. Furthermore, the program only works with available internal memory. This pretty much rules out the ability to load a music track saved in WAV format becasue its just too big to fit in memory. You are relagated to playing sound bytes which do work quite well. Overall the software is easy to use and accomplishes the task of creating slideshows quite nicely. The manual is short, sweet and to the point. You really will be up and running in minutes. Connecting to a PC was easy and painless. So why only three stars? Because it promises things it really can't deliver. The screen is smaller then advertised, the software is very basic and the much hyped stero sound is wasted on small sound byte files because the memory in the frame cannot hold even a 2 minute song. There is promise of the ability to run a slideshow from a USB attached device but no word yet. These are all acceptable items if you do not pay anwhere near the asking price of $499. Overall, if you have the cash to burn and want the best picture frame in this size then this is the unit for you.

- Not to shabby
I bought this product for my mom and after a little exploring and playing around I finally got it to do what I wanted. The picture quality was ok but I expected a little better. The transitions from computer to the piture frame are very fast and exporting pictures from other files was accomplished after some trial and errors were done. Overall I think it's a little overpriced for what you get but my mom loves it so that's all that matters. I would definately recomend this to someone who has a digital camera.

- Very cool
This frame is great. Very good product. It was easy to load and unload pictures.

The only draw back is that sometimes the pictures are displayed to dark.

- fantastic! A winner gadget pick for my husband.
This is totally wow! First off, I never bought into the
first gen of digital photo frames since really I thought
the displays were too small, and unwieldy to download to.
I'd seen Sony's and the Ceiva pic frame in action, and this is so much more universal for our use. Honestly, just the size was an instant sell. I guess the Ceiva lets you load up pix remotely once its set up, but I hated the thought of a subscription service etc.
Pro #1 The 10" active matrix TFT is super bright, has great resolution and the pix just pop out at you. Definitely, the view angle is not as good as my flat panel monitor, but its absolutely as good as any laptop.
Pro #2 is super easy to use with my 3 yr old ME desktop. got about 40 pix loaded on and the software set up in about 15 min.
Con#1 is also a pro -- they provide a pretty basic, and not too fantastic frame, but you can snap it into many of your own styles of picture frame, to suit your decor. Can also be wall mounted.( great idea with a toddler around the house)

- awesome display
This is the best unit I've tested of digital photo frames. The picture quality is great (800x600) and it's a TFT LCD sceen- VERY IMPORTANT. I didn't know it had sound also, but that makes it fun and interactive. Real easy to use and I connected a USB card reader to it to read my pictures (instead of connecting to a camera or PC). Good holiday gift for a non-technical person and I was really impressed.
