  It's a clock radio with pictures!

  by jflowers1 on January 3, 2008

  Pros: Has 2 alarms and displays pictures. Cheaper than just didgital picture frames and plays video

  Cons: Could be cheaper, but all picture frames are over priced.

  Summary: It is a clock radio, not a high def TV. I wouldn't care if it only played one video standard, as long as it was a popular one. When ...

  Summary: It is a clock radio, not a high def TV. I wouldn't care if it only played one video standard, as long as it was a popular one. When I wake up in the morning my eye sight is not ready to appreciate high def images, so the screen is more than sufficient. It is cheaper than dedicated picture viewers and does more. Love it!

  Okay but not the greatest

  by newzac on January 3, 2008

  Pros: Clock, alarm and radio work fine.

  Cons: USB connection but it doesn't play ipod. Also the slideshow doesn't play while the time is visable and when the time is displayed only one image displays.

  Summary: I had been looking for a clock radio/alarm that would play my iPod and thought I had found it. So it was a big disappointment when I figured out ...

  Summary: I had been looking for a clock radio/alarm that would play my iPod and thought I had found it. So it was a big disappointment when I figured out that iTune/iPod files can't be played even tho there is USB connection. Then I put together a nice slideshow of photos, which runs great, but not when the clock time is visable. I would not recommend it.

  It is a great gadget that has very helpful features.

  by pranilvora on November 18, 2007

  Pros: You are able to store music, videos, and photos via USB and SD card.

  Cons: There is no AM, only FM is available. Also, you cannot directly plug in your iPod into the device via USB. It shows up as no files in the folder.

  Summary: Overall, it is a great gift. I enjoy this very much. If you are a person that needs to wake up by an alarm, this is a great investment as ...

  Summary: Overall, it is a great gift. I enjoy this very much. If you are a person that needs to wake up by an alarm, this is a great investment as it has the best alarm options. It will wake you up with nature sounds and show you the pictures of your choice.

  A combination digital frame and clock radio that does a poor job of both

  Pros: good looking,

  Cons: poor image quality, no battery backup

  Summary: Great concept, but poor execution. Problems include: very poor image quality, especially with clock display, cannot read some jpeg files (did not try mp3 or video), no battery backup to ...

  Summary: Great concept, but poor execution. Problems include: very poor image quality, especially with clock display, cannot read some jpeg files (did not try mp3 or video), no battery backup to save date/time/alarm settings in case of power failure. But the biggest problem is screen brightness. At full or medium brightness, the display is too bright for use at night by the bedside. But with brightness set to minimum, the clock is illegible, making it useless as a bedside clock.

  Summary: everyone now a days has a ipod which works with the mpg4 file format, but this thing won't play them! in addition, you would think that once you got music onto this thing you would be able to choose that music to wake up to, but. Finally, I don't know if this is a problem with everyone's product but mine plays an aweful buzzing tone in the back of all sound that lasts a few seconds after the sounds shuts off. Because of this I can't use the sleep feature because as the sounds decreases (when I should be falling asleep) the buzzing tone gets louder. It also happens in the morning with the alarm, and anytime I want to play music. Poorly made, although a great idea.
