 Vialta fails out of the box - test before sending to grandma June 25, 2006
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
WARNING - test BOTH Beamers before sending one to Grandma. I ordered the dual set and BOTH Beamers are defective. Plug them in and NOTHING, no image. I get a dial tone but absolutely no "Beamer is now ready" message, just a blank screen (yes I plugged it in and tested it on several power outlets and several different phone lines).
I have sent an irate message to Vialta support and told them what a defective product they are selling.
Now I have to have my mother's assistant package up her unit and ship it to me so that I can ship it back to Amazon. For a product that is INTENDED to be shipped far away for long-distance communication, you would think that Vialta would test their products more thoroughly.

My daughter and son in law bought the Vialta, and then I bought one. My son in laws family lives in England and for a very short time, they all worked. The quality was poor and the connection would cut out. Now, nothing works, none of the the products communicate, and they went out at the same time. Very very serious loss of money and a way to communicate. I do not recommend this product to anyone who is interested in on line communication.
They the web video came, set a skype internet account, and you will find this a better way to stay in touch.

This video phone is the biggest garbage in the world. I bought one it is a waste of money. Video quality is horrible and cheap!! U will not be happy with this. I also have a motorola OJO video phone. That is much better than this. If your gonna get a video phone get the OJO. The price is higher but the video quality is superb!!

I bought the "2 fer the price of 1" units. 1 for me, 1 for my folks in New England so they can see my daughter via the video phone. Seems like a good deal, right? The 2 pairs arrived to me in the Midwest. I kept one and shipped the other to New England. My folks and I set up our units only to discover their unit is defective and does not power up when plugged in. Great! Terrific! Now my folks have to repack and ship the defective unit to me. I then have to re-repack it and send it with my working unit back to Amazon. By the time we factor in all of the extra postage required for the returns and the forwarding this dual deal is hardly worth it. We are going to try again and I've ordered a replacement pair. I guess I'm a sucker. Is it too much to expect this product to work? Buyer beware. And patient.

I bought two units of the beamer and sent one to my family. Turn out one unit is defective - something wrong with the camera. If I send it back to Vialta for repair, they charge me close to $100 + shipping. I think this is a ridiculous amount, as it is almost enough to get a new one.
