It doesn’t work. That’s the short version.
Here is the story – Since this was bought in the US for me and i intended to use it in India, i thought it wouldn’t hurt to be absolutely sure on the do’s & don’ts of this ‘not-so-cheap’ electronic item.
So, before i set this up in my house, I first took this product to Kodak’s authorized service center here in bombay (30 minute drive, 1 way) since i was aware of the difference in voltage/plug/adapter and thought it would be best to get the company guys to show me how to operate this before i take the plunge. They weren’t able to figure it out and made me call the Kodak head office, which then directed me to another of their service centers only this time it was a 2 hour drive (1 way).
Paid them a visit and it was concluded that the LCD was spoilt and would need to be replaced. Since (as i later learnt) this product didnt come with an international warranty they said they could not replace it. They may be able to fix it though but the cost involved in replacing the LCD would mean as good as buying a new product.
I’m now stuck with this product and am left writing customer reviews/feedback in the hope that amazon/kodak can help me out.
The irony of this whole deal is that i purchased kodak since it was well-known brand name and i figured it may be a ’safe’ purchase given their presence in this part of the world also. So much for that theory!
Moral of the story…be sure of the warranty, don’t get adventurous with electronic products, by them ‘locally’ and brand names don’t mean much.

The Kodak Easyshare SV-1011 10-inch Digital Picture Frame is an ok product. It needs more development. The functionality is OK, but the algorithms it uses to scale a larger image to the resolution of the frame are poor. For best results you should use computer based software to scale the images to the size and resolution of the frame. Also the contrast is insufficient. It does not produce an “ooh” or “ah” effect.

It is nice once you find the right video software that will play the movies on the digital picture frame.

Just received this with the intention of giving it to my mom for mother’s day…..and it looks nice, the resolution is pretty good – however there are no instructions included as to how to get the pictures loaded! Plus, although it’s nice that you can listen to mp3 files, you can’t play the music and see the pictures at the same time. It would be nice if you could view your picture slideshow set to music but not the case – you have to choose between listening to music or looking at pictures. Price is pretty reasonable but I’m not completely impressed.
