Coby DP-102 10-Inch Widescreen Digital Photo Frame with Built-In MP3 Player
Those old photo frames atop your dresser, desk, night stand and on your walls are vignettes of memories captured as prints in the era of film cameras. The digital-camera makes available a technology where photos don't have to be displayed as prints. They're displayed on screen, much like that of a TV set or a computer monitor. This frame uses LCD flat-panel technology and, at 2-1/4" deep, fits almost anywhere a standard frame would. The difference - this frame is not limited to display only 1 or a few pictures. A digital picture frame can display dozens (if not hundreds) of images off a digital-memory card. Here's a dandy way to display all those digital photos you're accumulating. Display one or all (in slideshow mode) directly from an SD, MMC, xD, or CompactFlash memory card. It's a great way to view your favorites on a table or on a wall - just like a regular picture frame. Yet COBY DP102 adds a unique feature. It has built-in speakers so you can play MP3 and WMA music files from your memory cards. You can even create photo slideshows with music. The DP102 has a USB port that lets you play photos stored on digital media drives. Its LED backlit screen delivers bright images for viewing in almost any situation. This is a perfect frame to give to your parents and grandparents. Let them see pictures of you all the time from a memory card you provide them. It has a dual-volt AC adapter for international capability. Plays Most MP4 and AVI Video Files from Digital Cameras Photo Slideshow with or without Music AV Output for play through with Home Theater Systems SD - MMC - xD - CF Card Slots Full-Size USB Port for use with Flash Memory Drives USB Port for Fast File Transfers Integrated Stereo Speakers Interchangeable Faceplate (Black or White) to match your decor Detachable Stand Table use or Wall Mountable

Coby DP-102 10-Inch Widescreen Digital Photo Frame with Built-In MP3 Player Reviews
What a nuisance. It only holds about 50 photos, (altho' the internal memory is one of the larger ones out there on the market). So now I'm wondering what anyone's experience is, specifically, with the DP8855 wood 5.6 inch photo frame with the clock. They're MEANT to run off the SD cards, etc. The downside is, you have to keep getting new SD cards (while you're keeping your old, downloaded files on the other ones).
of NY, NY about the internal memory, which our Phillips frame has. We already have a Phillips 7" photo frame for our home. Anyway, those are just my thoughts. Obviously the SD cards, the USB flash drives, etc., hold a lot more photos than our internal memory does. This way, you just change the SD card.
But if you had put those photos on a photo frame's internal memory, you'd have to permanently delete them to upload new ones, and then upload them AGAIN the next time you wanted to see them. I'm reading the reviews of the Coby photo frames, looking to purchase the Coby 5.6 inch frame with the clock for my husband (for his office) for Christmas. But these photo frames, like Robert says, are not MEANT to be run off the internal memory. I just wanted to agree with Robert C. Then, some time later, you might want to insert it again.
(It's like going back to look at a photo album). A little pricey, but I think it's worth the time you save with re-downloading photos. Overall, it really is easier just to keep photos on an SD card or USB flash drive and then just exchange it with another one when you get bored.
I can not comment on the durability of the product however. The set up was rather easy, no problems there. I bought this as a gift for a coworker who resigned from the job. A group of us decided to get pictures together, we thought the musical aspect would be fun as well. However at one point when wanting to pause it and then trying to continue, I could not find out how to continue from the spot that we paused it at, although you could quickly go through the pictures until you got to where you were, without the music however. The play back worked well also. I believe that this was a great gift, and that it will be enjoyed. Overall I recommend getting this along iwth a memory card, so you can simply add everything to that and stick it in the frame.
Easy to set up and use. Viewing area is small, but 5.6" isn't very big. Works great - the two frame choices look nice. Love the fact that the space is limited only by your media card size.
A nice product but overall people are having too many failures. Worked great for the first hour then went completely dead.
While the photo display portion of the frame works fine, the video functionality is sorely lacking. Videos do not always display correctly, frequently freeze the frame requiring a reboot, and the repeat function never ever works.
