 Thank You RobertC!!! July 8, 2008
I spent, literally, days going over all the different choices on this site. I have to give a HUGE thanks to the review by Robert C. He couldn't have been more spot on.
At first I wanted something with on board memory but they all seemed expensive when you compared the specs for each model. I've never owned an "SD" card before, but I bought many of these to give as gifts to people that owned digital cameras. (Me? I'm still developing 35mm film... I know. I know. I'm still scanning pictures into my computer, but that's another post. I'm "old school".)
With his review I decided that it could work for everyone's usage level and he was right. I scanned my photos in and transfered them via the USB cord to the SD card I bought. Perfect.
Great, big picture that isn't distorted. Very versatile. Colorful, bright picture. Random showing option. Good user manual. I'm very happy I took his advice. You won't be disappointed, I promise!
Although you might want to pick up a lava lamp key chain, so you can attach it to the remote. That way it can be easily found. It is teeny-tiny.
And sorry, but I can't put my "Real Name" down because I haven't given out the gifts yet.
Great picture quality; easy to use June 15, 2008
I purchased the frame as a gift for my husband for father's day. The frame was easy to use, and the picture quality was very good. Please note, you can use the frame to transfer pictures between memory devices, but it only has one slot for each type of device. If your camera uses a scan disk memory card and you buy a scan disk card as the memory for your frame, you will have to move the pictures to another device to copy them onto the frame.
Absolutely Stunning Picture Quality! May 27, 2008
I've seen many digital picture frame before and didn't expext too much. After reading the reviews here on Amazon, I ordered one for my wedding. The picture quality is truly amazing (800px x 600px) and the cool feature with the built-in speaker for MP3 playback is awesome during the slideshow option. The interchangeable frame distinguish the frame from the rest on the market.
PROS:
- Price (Best Picture Quality for the Price)
- Built-In Stereo Speakers for MP3 playback
- File Support (Photos, Audios & Videos)
- Interchangeable Frame (Silver & Gold, made from plastic with Brushed Aluminum look)
- Support different types of media storage
- Easy loading, Drag and Drop files onto your memory card
- User Friendly Remote Control
CONS:
- Sound quality isn't the best
- Quality of the Remote Control
- Does NOT support SDHC (No biggie, I email the support to confirm before ordering)
Bottomline, I still gave it a 5 star despite of the CONS list. It's well worth every penny.
 Beware! April 30, 2008

Just to let everyone know, this frame DOES NOT accept SD HC (High Capacity) cards. For those of us with high-megapixel cameras that are going to that type of card, this particular frame is one you want to steer clear of.
Simply Stunning Image Quality February 24, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Having owned a couple of other brands of digital frames (Ceiva, Philips, and a particularly crummy one that I can't remember the name of now), I can say that the photo quality on this frame is simply stunning (HD-like) in its clarity. I do real estate web design, so much of my time is spent editing photos on a 30-inch Apple Cinema display, so I am particularly critical when it comes to image quality. And I admittedly do run all my images through Photoshop, but I have to say that this frame blows away all the others I've seen over the years. Can't comment on this frame's durability, as I haven't had it as long as some my others, but it appears to bear some craftsmanship...at least on the outside.
A couple of notes: one person mentioned the "blank images/placeholders/thumbnails." This reflects the camera's folder structure on the storage card. I've never had a digital camera that didn't apply its own folder structure when the card is formatted and pics are subsequently written to the card. Thus, what is shown as a "blank image" is simply a folder that can't be read by the frame, but that is necessary, nevertheless, for the camera's functioning. There's nothing wrong with the frame. The slideshow will still work fine this way--and will not "show" the blank images-- but the slideshow photos will not loop.
How to fix the slideshow so it loops? Simply copy the pics to the _root directory_ of another storage card or flash drive (don't delete the folder structure on your camera's storage card, of course, as you'll need it for your camera). Now, on your supplemental card, you will be rid of the "blank images," and the slideshow will loop, as the target card is devoid of the camera-required folder structure.
Last, the slideshow transition duration can be set for a number of different user-defined intervals. Those intervals, however, are also affected by the size and optimization of the image files on the card. For example, if you have 10 100 kb files and set the duration to 5 seconds, the slideshow will play exactly as defined. If, however, you sandwich several 6 MB files in the middle of the 100 kb slideshow, your duration in going from a 100 kb file to a 6 MB pic in the sequence will take _more_ than 5 seconds...even if you have the duration set to 5 seconds. The frame is having to resample, and what would take 5 seconds going from pic 1 to 2 might now take 8 seconds, but the extra time is not glaring...or even particularly noticeable. This is no big deal at all for me, as the pics are so lifelike I hate to see one fade at all, but I thought I would mention it...just in case you plan to add some hefty 10 mb images and expect them to cycle every 5 seconds.
