2.0 out of 5 stars poor remote; resets duration after powered off, May 17, 2009

The screen is fair and of good size, but not particularly crisp, bright, or vibrant. The remote is very poor -- I could almost never get the screen to respond to the remote unless I aimed directly at the lower right corner of the screen and held the remote vertically (!?; see all the reviews at Costco website). This would not be a huge issue, except that you can not fully configure the viewer without the remote. Even after changing to fresh battery, had the same problem (returned it on this basis alone).

Worse, when the frame is turned off, it resets to the default slide duration -- which is 5 seconds. This is way too short for anyone using this as a digital picture frame by their desk because it's a constant distraction. Also, the (random) transitions are very "blocky" and not smooth; it bugged me so much that I went deep into the menus to change them all to "fade" but was no better. One slide "fades" into the next in what looks like 3 or 4 increments -- blink, blink, blink. It's not at all like what we've grown accustomed to on an iPhoto, iMovie, or even PowerPoint slide presentation.

Yes, it's big and it's dirt cheap; we were looking for something a little better.

2.0 out of 5 stars hate the remote!, December 15, 2009

large good quality screen but unfortunately the remote is TERRIBLE and even worse you have to control everything on the screen with the remote if you don't have the touch version. I downloaded several hundred photos from my memory card and wanted to delete those I didn't want to display... I spent HOURS. You have to press the button on the remote many times to get a response 8 out of 10 times.

On another note it didn't download the photos from my camera in order so if you are looking to do a slide show where pics are displayed as they happened, it messes it all up.

Again the size and picture quality were great, but it's so cumbersome to work with the photos due to lack of functionality and crappy remote quality... That unless you only have a few photo's to work with you will find it a lesson in frustration.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, November 29, 2009

My family had high hopes for this frame as a gift to tech shy Great Grandparents that live in another part of the country. The frame did not measure up. It was hard to set up, harder to change images. We were hoping to send photos over a photo sharing website but did not give it to them because we hit so many problems. We are looking for another product.
