This review is from: Toshiba DMF82XKU 8-Inch Wireless Digital Media Frame (Black)I don't typically do reviews because most aspects are covered somewhere in existing reviews. However, this had glowing reviews all around and warranted a reality check.Does not connect to the internet via wireless very well at all (this was the only reason to buy this frame). I have a robust network for my house and run six systems flawlessly but with this frame the connection/performance is iffy at best (even though it always shows good signal and that it is connected). When it does work, you can only run limited programs via FrameChannel or the device locks up. This is apparently not only my findings but common in some reviews elsewhere. It takes a loooong time to get the info via FrameChannel to work. When you make changes (like adding a channel) they don't happen quickly (which is ok), but sometimes it will give you the "broken frame" icon which means something is wrong. What is wrong is that the service itself (FrameChannel) is spotty and inconsistent and flawed. I was hoping to run stock ticker, weather and a bit of news while interspersing photos. Not happening at all. You get photos and ONE channel to work and that seems to be it. When I add anything else, the device goes blank or doesn't react to the change at all unless unplugged and reset. Then it only updates to the newest channel while ignoring what you had before.Also, pictures uploaded online will go portrait on you and can not be adjusted unless you reload them or reorient them from your system before uploading. Not a big deal just mediocre web-app programming.Pictures look good. The frame looks good. Menu is OK but glitchy and buttons don't always work (no big deal, this isn't a smart-phone or laptop so what would one expect?). Video playback is not so good (but have only quickly played with this feature) and only seems to want a particular size and bit-rate. But in all fairness, I have not tried to optimize for this at all. I spent most of my time trying to get FrameChannel to do something useful.All in all, for the price, I don't recommend it since the service you are paying for is no good. Get a better, bigger frame for cheaper by someone else (Samsung or Nix perhaps) and don't pay for the internet service/wi-fi feature that is still an afterthought and doesn't work well at this point. Maybe another year and with development it will be worth it....

This review is from: Toshiba DMF82XKU 8-Inch Wireless Digital Media Frame (Black)For Christmas, we had purchased the HP Smart WiFi digital frame for my parents. It was a NIGHTMARE to set up, took literally hours to establish the connection with the wireless router and then would lose it frequently. We took it back and ordered this Toshiba frame.In contrast. the Toshiba frame was a dream to set up the connection and establish what you want to show via FrameChannel. My parents aren't very technical so I set it up and then mailed it to them. I was able to quickly and easily talk my mom through setting it up at her house via the phone. She is DELIGHTED with the frame and loves the fact that when we e-mail new photos to her, they show up immediately. Another great feature is that when new photos are sent to it/uploaded on facebook, it gives those preferential treatment in the shuffle, showing those more frequently for the first 48 hours. Terrific idea!We give this two thumbs up and will likely be ordering another one for my ILs....
