4.0 out of 5 stars True Story on Pocket Viewer, December 25, 2007

OK, I got one of these for xmas. Kind of neat but I know others who are having trouble. First of all the resolution is why I gave it 4 stars not 5. The resolution could be better its like a cell phone as other reviews have stated. The real problem here is the directions. They are poorly written. When moving a picture to the menu to then load it into your pocket viewer is where all the troubles seem to start. The directions seem to just stop at that point. So read several times and you'll get it. There's a button in the upper right hand corner of the screen you need to click on called "synchronize" you must click on it to load the selected picture into your viewer. This info is for Windows users. Mac is different and I have no knowledge of it. After you get the hang of it its a kind of a neat item to carry to show others pictures of the family, home, kids etc. Hope this helps. Also charging through the AC adapter is much faster then the USB port on your computer. It comes with stuff to do either one you choose.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good display, interfaces lacking, December 29, 2007

The display of this keychain is pretty nice for its size. It looks like there is limited color depth available, but the images end up looking nice all the same. The menu interface on the keychain is a little hard to use because it just has the menu button and forward/back buttons. Also, you have to use the provided software, which means you must have Windows. It would be better if it allowed straight transfer of images instead of forcing you to use the software. The software itself lacks polish, windows can't always be resized. Again, this device would be great if users could bypass having to use the included software to load images.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Decent Digital Keychain, December 30, 2007

Purchased as a Christmas present I found the Digital Foci pocket album easy to use. The contrast display in the LCD could be a bit better but it works. I believe most people are used to high resolution displays now and expect that same display when these types of products are purchased. The software is decent and transferring pictures is simple enough. I do wish it showed a thumbnail view of the picture prior to transferring, instead of having to click on each individual file name. I have 1000's of pictures and I don't name each and every one. For the price you really can't go wrong and it does make a great gift for anyone who is somewhat computer savvy.Digital Foci Pocket Album 1.5" Keychain Digital Photo Viewer (Silver)
