This review is from: Pix-Star PXT8W002 8-Inch FotoConnect Digital Photo Frame with Wi-FiI bought this frame a couple weeks ago and set it up at my parent's house last week. I had no problems at all with getting it connected to the internet, setup was a breeze. My father has a Picasa account and had the frame displaying pictures from his web album in short order. We signed up for an email address on the Pix-Star website and my sister sent a pic from her cell, less than a minute later the frame dinged, my Mom said "This is going to be fun", and pushed a button on the remote and the picture shows up on the frame. All this happened within 20 minutes of opening the box!Now for a comment about the service. A little later that day I tried sending a pic from my cell phone (Verizon) and it never showed up... I tried again the next day and copied my yahoo email account along with the frame and again a no show at the frame but I did receive it at my yahoo account. So, I sent a help request to Pix-Star explaining the problem and expected not much, based on previous experience with other company's customer service. However, with Pix-Star, I received an email reply that evening asking me to send a pic from my Verizon phone to their email address. A day later the problem is resolved, no generic 'maybe in the next firmware update' or 'Thanks for your feedback' reply, they just fixed the problem! Fantastic!So, needless to say, I'm very happy with this frame so far, and expect it will provide much entertainment for my family for years to come!...
This review is from: Pix-Star PXT8W002 8-Inch FotoConnect Digital Photo Frame with Wi-FiI am an at-home mom with 3 kids-if I am writing a review- you know it must be good! I am not a big tech person or into the newest gadgets or gizmos, but 2 of my friends have this frame and after seeing it with titled photos and radio- on all the time- I knew my house could really use one!!I set it up in my kitchen office area where the kids could see the photos of themselves and I could hear the radio! We are always in the kitchen it seems and we are always receiving a photo from friends, aunts, or grandparents. When I am on a trip with the kids, I email photos to my friends and family on my phone, and I put in ironic and ridiculous titles. It really is fun!I am always intimidating when I buy a new device, and worried that I won't be able to figure it out and will spend hours on the phone with support. I usually have my husband do it for me. NOT THIS TIME! I actually took it out and plugged it in and used the buttons on the frame itself(I guess you can do it with the remote too, my girlfriend told me) it found our wi-fi right away and was on line! I sent a photo off my phone just to be sure and it made a sound and there it is! I never thought I would use it as much as I have, and have so much fun! Beware- some people think it is funny to send some "inappropriate pictures"!...
This review is from: Pix-Star PXT8W002 8-Inch FotoConnect Digital Photo Frame with Wi-FiThe Scoop: If the in-laws, parents or grandparents have no hope of working email, computers, or anything digital. If you want to be able to upload pictures directly to their picture frame, then this is the one and only item in the whole world that will do it.How I use it: I set up a photo album on an online service called www.shutrerfly.com and have the photo frame synchronize to that. All I have to do is upload to shutterfly and they get the pictures on their frame.Sounds easy? Yes it does! I bought the frame, configured it and then sent it to them. All they had to do was plug it in and connect the Internet.Now for the CONS:It has a lousy wireless card in it. I eventually had to have them hard-wire the frame to get it to work because the frame would randomly go from having 5 of 5 bars to zero bars. Every laptop in the house had solid signal, but the frame had issues.Pros:All their services are free - no fees - ever - for anythingSupports Framechannel, like all the rest of the wireless frames around, but adds the followingConnects to many photo services directly like Flicker, Shutterfly, SmugMug, Picasa, and a whole lot moreIt has Internet Radio. OK, yeah, this seems pointless on a picture frame, but it was kind of nice to have the frame play their favorite radio station, KOIT from California, when the in-laws lived in a small mountain town in Colorado.It can be programmed to turn on/off at specific timesI am giving this a three because of the lousy wireless card in it. If it had a decent wireless card in it, I would give this a 5....
