digital picture frame 
2008-08-14
9" are actualy 8", instruction are good, the picture is crisp, however it is not compatible with Vista OS. Thus the only way to see pictures is to transfer them to a memory chip
battery is about to explode 
2008-08-10
Gave this as a gift to parents 12/2006. Has been working fine, but as my brother was going to upload more photos onto the card he found the back of the unit bulging out about half an inch. Turns out it is the battery growing larger and certainly will explode in time.
Wondering if anyone else has had this problem - I couldn't find any recall notices on the web.
User inteface is terrible and documentation worse 2008-08-05
I received this as a gift, along with a memory card with pictures, and figuring out how to transfer the pictures from the memory card to the device was unnecessary painful. In the menus, there is no visual choice for returning to the previous menu, or cancelling. You have to find out how to do it by carefully reading the documentation. Don't give this to someone unless you can spend some time with them helping them figure it out.
the 9 inch, which is 8 inch, Philips Digital Picture Frame, Metal 2008-08-05
The performance of this product is outstanding. The size of this item is not quite 8.2 inches, or really barely over 8 inches, yet has been noted as a 9 inch frame. That keeps me from rating this as five star. When pricing digital frames, I looked at 9 inch frames for comparison.
The nicest features of this unit includes the automatic rotation when turning the frame from landscape to portrait, even when held in hand, back and forth. A very nice display, and you can even have the time display as well.
Again, I would have given this five stars if it was advertised/sold/represented as a 8 inch digital frame. If I wasn't already late for the gift presentation, I would have sent it back and asked for refund of the expedited shipping costs.
Problems with using a Mac with this, also chip 
2008-08-05
Warning - I bought this product after a great experience with the smaller frame but I have had two big problems. 1 - a product problem= It would not accept photo transfers from a Mac laptop as the mac laptop disconnected the USB connection saying it was drawing excessive power (I have never had this problem before and it happened twice) 2 - an instructions plus user problem it turns out it will not take the memory chip used by either my Sony or HP digital cameras which are reasonably popular makes but the slot looks to a reasonably sensible consumer as if it is the right one (and the paper instructions are misleading)so I jammed the slot ! Be warned. So I would be wary if you are a Mac user or if you assume that a popular camera memory chip will work with this. A disappointment

picture frame, digital 
2008-07-20
I purchased this digital picture frame for my daughter's graduation party. I love it and so did our guests. I especially like the timer feature, I now have my frame running from 8 A.M. to 10 P.m. I would highly recommend this item to a friend.
Perfect gift 2008-07-02
I imported my twins photos to the frame and gave it to my mother-in-law on Mother's Day. She loved the gift.
Excellent digital photo frame 2008-06-24
This photo frame is an excellent one. It's design actually resembles a real photo unlike the majority of them that have a border that's 3" thick.
The features are very nice, with an easily removable face plate (magnetic), timers for auto-on and auto-off (3 of them), a cool group of transition effects between each photo (optional), and the ability to position it wide or tall as the format (it has a motion sensor that re-positions the images to match the orientation).
This is in fact a 9" model - I couldn't find it on Philips website, but it does exist. It's a nice size - almost perfectly matched to a normal photograph.
The only minor complaint is that the screen - though very nice quality - does not appear to look like a real photograph. I don't know if that was a faulty assumption to expect it to look just like a photo or not, but the LCD in this frame does not match a photo. It does have great colors, a bright picture (I like it on medium so it blends in with the room and looks more like a real photo), and a pretty wide viewing angle.
It's easy to drop pictures into it, but I recommend getting an SD card to put photos onto - it makes the process even easier.
A definite 5/5 when compared with the other digital photo frames I've seen.
Digital picture frame, nice display

Great size with a beautiful display but no memory storage. You have to buy additional storage.
