DPF-D100 10.4" Digital Photo Frame
(5 out of 5) by jaywcee on Dec 24, 2008 (Nikiski, AK USA)This is a beautiful frame and works great with a few quirks.
If I could rate the Sony Help desk, I would give them 1 star. When I first received the frame, I tried to transfer over 1,000 scanned photos saved as jpeg from Photoshop CS2 version. Nothing would show up. I called the Sony help desk and received the helpful hint that "It might not work," with no further explanations as to why. HMMMM Thanks!
After experimenting, I downloaded the latest version of Photoshop CS4 and resaved all my photos using the Save for Web or Device, and then they all worked fine. I don't know about other photo software, but if you run into problems it may be as simple as what version you are using. Why Sony wouldn't say this is beyond me. Their help desk certainly should know what works and what doesn't and be able to offer advice beyond "It might not work."
Other than that, it is a great frame.

The Best Digital Frame
(5 out of 5) by St John on Jun 19, 2009 (New York)Look no further. This frame is by far the best one out there. Initially I had a problem with some of my Photoshop'd pics but I read you just have to resave them and uncheck the progressive box. After that they all worked beautifully.

Amazing quality
(5 out of 5) by Wendy on Jan 6, 2009 (Middletown, NJ)This digital picture frame is really worth the money. The quality of the pictures displayed is terrific. It's easy to set up. There are lots of easy to use options. I bought a large frame so my mom, who is older, could see the pictures easily. It definitely does not disappoint. I would highly recommend it. It's worth the money.
Don't bother
(1 out of 5) by R. Haas on Aug 31, 2009I was very disappointed with this purchase.
First, the screen has a glass that reflects light, so if you put it in a well lit place chances are you will not be able to see your pictures, or will be very annoyed trying to avoid reflection.
Second, it does not have a USB input, so forget about using your 16 mb pen drive. If you are like me with over 5000 pics, you will be forced to buy another Sony memory stick (if you prefer not to run the risk of grabbing your camera and oops, no memory card because you forgot it in the frame...)

Top notch frame for people serious about photo quality
(4 out of 5) by T. Satterthwait on Jan 31, 2009This is a fantastic frame for a good many reasons. The picture quality is unmatched in any similar device I've seen. The screen size is generous, the controls are easy, and the operation is very straightforward. The slide show also allows delays as long as 24 hours. The stand is a little funny but ultimately stable, and it might have been nice to be able to change out the frame color to match the room. The price is a little high but I have no regrets paying it.
