Well, the product is good for its price. But, the fact that the pictures do not fit your screen well irritated me initially until I found out a solution. You need a software to convert your 4:3 pictures to 16:9. The software I used is "JS PhotoPrep". You can convert all your pics at once. Once you download and install, check mark both "Perform Crop" and "Perform Resize". Select Crop ratio as 4X6 and "Desk-view" in Perform Resize with a High quality (for enlarging). Now use these pics on your Coby Photo frame. Once you get into the slide show mode, click the right arrow twice to get into the full screen mode. You should be able to see your pics coming on the full screen without distorting it. Hope this helps.
 Adequate frame, a little patience needed November 4, 2008

I had thought about digital photo frames for some time, then received one as a gift, so I had no preconceived notions about performance. Overall I think this was a good basic introduction to the photo frame concept. I do turn mine off when not viewing (as you should with any electronic gizmo) and have not yet seen any image moving sideways.
Pros: I personally found it easy to set up, get it loaded with photos and start displaying, basically just loaded a USB drive, inserted it and turned on the frame. I like the 2-color frame feature though I haven't tried it yet. I like that it takes many kinds of memory cards as I may switch to a CF card so that it doesn't stick out the side of the frame. Seems sturdy enough to use other places than the desktop, this might be a fun thing to actually take to an event somewhere (family reunion, charity event, trade show booth for example), loaded with photos of past events, and set it up to display.
Cons: Photos need cropping to display properly and make maximum use of the pixels on the screen. I found N. Michael's review and instructions extremely helpful and they work great. This could be frustrating for folks not used to using graphics programs of any type, though, and is tedious to do for many photos like I have been. The resolution is adequate, though I was a bit surprised that the resolution was not higher, the display is somewhat pixelated, and a higher rez is definitely something I will look for in my next frame. The display is also quite contrasty and a little dark. I haven't been able to figure out how to move from one slide to next manually using remote in full-screen mode.
Again, overall, great basic introduction to the photo frame concept, and probably quite good for those whose expectations aren't high. I am enjoying it quite a lot as my digital photos aren't trapped on my computer anymore!
Wasted today trying to get this thing to work November 3, 2008

This Coby DP-350 looks like a quality piece that is going to be great, but I wasted most of today trying to load pictures and music. The buttons are usually unresponsive. The menus are awkward, and seem to vanish when you need to use them.
I got pictures loaded okay (they look a little "green" to me), but the thing doesn't recognize any of the MPEG files that I loaded on it!
Ugh! I hate it!
I should have been tipped off when the bright yellow sheet that came with it said "Stop! Call us before you consider returning the product!"
When I saw that, I asked "Why would they say that?" After my wasted hours and frustration, now I know why!
Ugh!
