Awsome now that i found rsdpv.exe before that it suckedSunday, February 13, 2005
MAKE SURE YOU download rsdpv.exe or the pictures you load into it will not work! radio shack should have thought of this. "youve got questions they got no answers"

set expectations properly, look for closeoutsMonday, January 24, 2005
this is definitely a low-end photo frame, and costs like it. this is no equal for frames costing $200-400.
similar models to the smartpants are often available at closeout prices, this frame is also known as the gigaexpo p350 and radio shack digital photo frame 63-1078 (discontinued).
this frame has significant limitations. the biggest issue for most people is in the jpeg decoding. there is a program available from willus.com/archive called rsdpv.exe that will resize your images and use the proper jpeg encoding and naming scheme to make the viewer happy.
the angle of view could be better, and i'm told that the tv video output is terrible so don't bother.
but for a budget frame at a budget price, if your expectations are set properly, this is a nice little unit.

Worthless productWednesday, January 19, 2005
I bought this item for my husband for Christmas and after purchasing a memory card for this item, we were unable to view the pictures. I called the company that manufactures this product and they were clueless about how to help. They passed me around to a few people who actually said that "this is a new product and we don't really know how to fix problem." I was outraged. This was a waste of money and a lot of time trying to get the pictures to show up!

Don't waste your moneyWednesday, January 05, 2005
Got this picture frame for Christmas. I followed all the directions exactly as written in the guide. Stored my JPG pictures on the SD flash card successfully. I could not get any images to appear on the small screen. I tried several more times, making sure the files were named correctly and stored in the correct folder, but nothing worked. Waste of money!!

Doesn't work with edited .jpg's, cheap plastic, and small screen make this device useless. To rotate a .jpg, they actually tell you to turn the unit on it's side in the manual! Better products are surely on the way ...
