 - A Perfect Digital FrameThis was just what I wanted. Easy to use and good quality. I just loaded my photos on a jump drive/flash drive (purchased separately) and put the jump drive in the frame and it worked! I loaded 300 photos (some of them scanned), and they later added some more from their computer. I sent the whole thing to my folks and it worked for them. It made for a lovely 50th wedding anniversary present. Worth the money :D Rating: - Kodak Eas Share SV811 8 Inch picture frameGreat purchase. I purchased the picture frame for my sisters birthday. She was so happy to get it. I went to the website and downloaded the updates. I setup a few pictures for her to view. It was easy to do. But then I am very savy with electronics. The picture quality is great. I like the idea that you are able to set the time for your pictures to be viewed. Normaly 10 seconds is long enough. I recommend this product. If one of my sisters sees this, I have a birthday comming up and this is what I want. Rating: - this is fantastic!the SV710 is my second kodak digital frame. i received the EX811 for Christmas last year (i'll get back to the WiFi issues). in any event, i purchased the SV710 for my mother, who is now residing in a nursing home. with limited space, i wanted her to have a display of family and friends. this little number is just the ticket. you can hang it on the wall, and it won't take up precious space on the dresser (don't leave the remote ~ take that home with you). i also purchased 3 1GB SD cards that i can easily swap out on my visits, and update her pictures when anyone sends me a new one. the display is crystal clear, even with scanned snaps at 300 dpi. i've even scanned crayon drawings from the little ones. it's so nice to have everything in one place. i also bought a card reader, and keep her folder on my desktop. just drop new pictures into the folder and update the SD card, swap it out with the one in the frame when you go to visit! it's so easy and you don't need to install the kodak software for the SD card to function. i love it! PS ~ the WiFi on my EX811 stopped functioning. it's all about the settings on your network. if you're having problems with connecting the frame to your network (i have verizon FIOS), you might want to check the settings on your router. set the speed to 'auto' i've had no problems since. Rating:  - Excellent product with a few problemsI purchased 3 of these to give as presents. I have had the 1st one for a month. I have memory sticks (new and old) for more photos. The photo frame read the old 128 meg Memory Stick just fine. The newer MS Duo it read but had problems adding photos to the stick. The SD cards (brand new) it would not read at all. The memory stick, DUO and SD stick read perfectly well on my computer. The picture is crisp and clear. The menu (using the remote) is easy and intuitive. The menu from the photo frame (using buttons on the back) does not have all the features of the remote. The menu from the back is cumbersome. The remote has a convenient caddy that mounts on the rear of the frame. The photo frame must have a slow processor. A large photo 1-2 megs loads slowly as the photo appears in chunks. A photo of 25k to 50k is good enough resolution and is nearly as clear as the 2 meg photo and loads very fast. Placing the photos on the frame is easy but takes a little thought the first time. I connected the photo frame to my computer using the USB cable and Explorer came up with 4 drives. F: G: H: I: My adapter to read the memory sticks that I plugged into a second USB drive came up as J: K: L: M: N: It was confusing to find the pictures on the adapter (L:) drive and drag and drop to the (F:) drive. If you are using different sticks than I was they will be different drives. Other than the minor confusion keeping track of the drive it was easy to drag and drop the photos. I put some MP3 files on the photo frame, the speakers were cheap. I didn't expect much from small speakers. I put a small video from the camera on the photo frame and it was jerky in the movement. I would not recommend this photo frame to anyone for MP3 or video. That is about the sum of it. As a photo frame, I like it. Overall it was easy to drag and drop. I wish it had a gig of onboard memory but the memory stick worked fine. Wonderful resolution for a small flat screen. The majority of my photos were 25k to 50k with 10-15 photos in the 1-2 meg I was able to load about 200 photos. One real nice feature that I loved was that if you arrange your photos in alpha numeric order on Explorer it will be in the exact same order on the photo frame. My default was A-Z. It was nice to have them stay in that order when I placed them on the Photo frame. Robert Beaumont, Texas Rating: - Very pleasedEasy to understand & get started. Great color. Videos work great. Very pleased.
