 Rating:  - Do not buy thisThis is the worst HP product I have bought. I can't connect with my Flickr albumbs. It is very difficult to set up. Rating:  - Serious Piece of JunkI am also an IT person for aliving. I will jsut say that this thing seesm like it should be in alpha test, not even beta test. The general concept is great. But I am very disappointed with HP. Good Qualities : - Can set up an email address to automatically send photos to is. Bad Qualities: - Picture frame is cheap plastic - Speakers are horrible - Device often loses its wi-fi connection and has to be reporgrammed. - As other use mentioned, integration is weak in terms of memory card to online photos. - It often fails to do whatever online action you are trying to do and you have to keep on trying. - It is so slow, one is not often sure if the remmote is not working or wether its processing your request. I am embarrassed I paid $150 for this when it came out. Maybe its worth $60. if they come out with updated firmware for it, it might work better. Rating: - Designed by Carly Fiorina?Well I guess I'm lucky, because the frame is currently stuck in a firmware download reboot loop, and so back it goes. But all the complaints from other reviewers.... They're all accurate. The frame is slow, the connectivity is poor with my netgear router using wep, and it's 2010, and the frame does not do rss. But even the services it does do, namely picassa, it does poorly. I was hoping for a frame I could set up, configure, and then ship to someone who just wants to see a slideshow of my picasa albums of my kids. But the frame does only one picasa album at a time, and it does not do that automatically on power on, you have to set it to the album each time. The frame is a total embarrassment to HP. And I say that while typing on an HP desktop quad core computer that I love, with another in the living room, printing the return form out on my HP OfficeJet J6480, and having given my middle school daughter my HP-17BII calculator just last week after ...

After 3 hours of messing with it I decided to change my router to WEP and it finally connected and download itself a new firmware version. Well, it's all over the internet that the WEP is not secure , so I changed again to WPA2, and the problems started . The connection to DHCP would fail most of the time or it would freeze while showing picture from Picassa website and trying to play radio station at the same time. Before buying this item see if HP decided to added the support on its own web site, for my surprise I couldn't find this device listed there at all, I called HP and their advise was to reset the router....What a pit! This device has good specs, if would just work.... At least buy.com was very friendly to accept it back and provided a shipping label. Rating: - There's Nothing "Smart" about the HP Smart WiFi Digital FrameLike many others, I bought this HP digital frame as a gift. The main selling point was the WiFi capability that allows the frame to receive photos directly by email, text message, or photo sharing sites. Unfortunately, the HP "Smart" digital frame is anything but. We have spent several days trying to set-up the HP frame and getting it to work. Sadly, it does not work well at all. You register your frame at the HP website in order to enable features such as weather, photos by email, etc. Herein lies the first big problem. Every time you choose "Set-up" on the frame (even to check previous settings), you are forced to generate new authentication codes to associate the frame with your website account. This is very frustrating and inconvenient. The same thing happens with setting up the wireless network -- if you go into the setup menu, the previously connected wireless network is removed and you are forced to re-enter your wireless settings. ...
