 easy to use May 23, 2008
I received this as a Christmas gift and really like it. It was very easy to use and figure out. It came with a program to put on my PC that was relatively simple, although it did take me a bit to figure out how to delete pictures. The instructions on that were a bit confusing (it could have just been me though) but I figured it out in the end. It holds about 70 pictures but of course it all depends on their size. I have no complaints about the quality of the pictures or the features. I love that it has a timer so you can have it turn off at night or only turn on for certain lengths of time.. Also, as far as durability, I accidentally dropped it the first week I had it and it still works! :) I highly recommend this frame!
Let the Slide Show Begin May 22, 2008

First off I want to say I bought this for fifty bucks on special right here on amazon.com At that price it is a good buy. At the current price it's not worth it. There are better photo slide show frames out there with more features. No MP3 or MP4. You cannot charge this, you better have an outlet where you want to display your pics. Lacking these features puts a damper on it for me. But at fifty bucks who am I too complain?
Set up was a little slow going it kept going back to it's default pictures.
But I finally got it set up even the clock! Now this a nice feature!
The pictures show was great! No distortion great depth and color! Nothing looked washed out or stretched out. You can set the speed of the slide show, From seconds to hours. The 5.6 screen is great a very nice size. it doesn't seem small to me. For fifty bucks it's nice but at it's current price I'd search for one with more features.
 Nice looking frame, subpar performance May 21, 2008

I am on my second frame. The first one freaked out on me and wouldn't do anything. It started emitting a burning smell, and eventually only came up to a blank screen, no matter what I did. I attempted a firmware update, but it never did anything.
I returned it for a replacement. Amazon was very helpful in returning the frame. I got the replacement quickly, and shipping the item back was a breeze.
Now I have the second frame, and it at least works partially. It may work better on a PC, but on the Mac, it is very flawed. It does not work as described in the manual. I finally was able to get it working with an SD card, but occasionally it still freaks out and gives me a blank screen. I have to unplug it at that point to restart it.
If any Mac users have a digital frame that works well, I'd love to know about it. I like the looks of this frame, and the price was great. It just does not work as described, and has been quite a pain. Skip this one and look for something a little better.
Philips 5.6" Digital Photo Frame May 21, 2008
I bought this for my wife for Mother's Day. She absolutely LOVES it! The picture is quite sharp & bright. The only downside is that when you turn it on , you have to go through a couple menus to get going. Also make sure you buy a SD card ( or some type of memory) as it doesn't have much of its own. For about $10 you can get a 2 GB SD card that will hold more than plenty.
Fantastic digital frame for the price! May 16, 2008
I bought the Philips 5.6-Inch Digital Photo Frame (White) for my mom for Mothers' Day, and not only does she love it but I wish I had bought one for myself!
The frame itself is bright white and sturdy-feeling. It looks nice, not cheap. It comes with a USB cable, wall charger (there is no battery on board, so you'll have to keep it plugged in), a quick start guide, and an installation disc.
The disc contains a program for copying the pictures over to either the frame's hard drive or any external memory card you have inserted into it. The interface is a simple drag/drop and has decent sized thumbnails so you can see what it is you're copying over. You can create separate albums on it, so you could organize your pictures if you wished.
The back of the frame has buttons for power and to access the menu. You can input the date and time (and have the time show up on your frame like a clock), create and save slideshows of select pictures, view your album, and so on. Or you can simply show all of your pictures as one big slideshow (you can't, however, combine pictures from your card and pictures on the hard drive -- it's one or the other, so be sure to get a big enough memory card to hold all of the photos you want).
My two favorite features: the auto adjusting of the pictures (I have a frame where vertical pictures aren't always vertical, which is unfortunate -- on this frame, they are right EVERY time) and the HUGE menu available for how you want your pictures displayed. There are various collages you can use, or just show the picture full size, or randomize how they are displayed. There are many choices for transitions between pictures, like a puzzle frame or various wipes or a simple fade -- or, again, you can randomize it. You can choose how long you want the pictures to show for (less than 5 seconds? 10 seconds? an hour? a day?). You can even set it to turn on automatically on the weekends. This was a great deal for the price, and my mom loves it!
If you're looking for a great frame, look no further. This one has everything I could want and more, it looks nice, and it even makes a great gift.
