 Does what it's supposed to June 28, 2007
It was easy to setup (as long as you use the remote and not the controls on the frame itself) and has a pretty good picture quality as long as you don't look too close. There are a lot of features on it that I don't use (such as mp3 playback) but it's nice that they're there in case I ever want to.
 Pretty Good June 27, 2007

I don't know if I got a lemon or if all of these products have this defect, but the off/on timer does not work. The timer is designed to allow you to specify when you want your frame to operate. I enabled the timer to shut off at 8pm. The frame shut off its slide show running from an SD card at 8pm. Then a little while longer it turned back on again, this time running the slide show from the internal memory. I shut it off manually using the remote, and again a little while longer while I was sitting in the room the frame just turned on again. Finally I just flipped the switch. Also after the frame turned on, it no longer recognized the SD card until I pulled it out and put it back in again.
As far as resolution quality and look, I really like the frame. It plays videos great and it is fun and easy to load pictures to the frame.
The remote only works at very close range to the frame.
 Perfect for grandma! June 21, 2007

I wanted to send my 85yo grandmother a picture of our kids, but this digital frame is going to work so much better! Out of the box, without using any EasyShare software, I connected it via USB to my MacBook and dragged some images onto the drive. Ejected the drive from my desktop, but it remounted right away, so I unplugged the USB and dismissed the warning Mac OS X gives you. The picture frame immediately started displaying photos AND MOVIES! I've got a Cannon A70 digicam and this frame plays the movies without any trouble, even sound!
So I had to do some configuration settings, 30 second delay, little more brightness, etc. But my grandmother will be able to plug it in, turn it on and enjoy without any futzing around!
Perfect, perfect, perfect!
NIce picture quality, doesn't randomize pictures June 20, 2007

I bought this frame as a mother's day gift after buying the polaroid version that had really bad picture quality. Digital picture frames (in my opinion) are just unnecessarily expensive. So with that said, and realizing that you will have to pay over $100 for ANY frame with 1/2-way decent pics, I will say that this frame is a very good value (comparatively) for its price.
I have no complaints on the picture quality (although of course, there are more frames out there with better quality...but for a better quality you will definitely have to pay over $200), especially at this price. It is quite crisp and very bright. I really enjoyed watching the pics on this frame. My only gripe with this frame is that it does not automatically randomize your pics, nor does it offer an option to let you do so. It would really make the show more interesting if you didn't have to view all the pics in each folder on your memory card before moving to the next one. Also, a lot of frames come with changeable faceplates to change the color of the frame--or have nicer frames in general, rather than the plain (and kinda cheap looking) black plastic that is on the kodak frame. That is one area that could also be improved. Overall though, for the price, I think this is a good purchase. DEFINITELY a much better choice over the polaroid or smartpants frames that are around $30 less.
 Didn't come close to expectations June 17, 2007

This is a review of the Kodak EasyShare SV710; Amazon has some miscategorized reviews.
I was unable to get the EasyShare software to load on my laptop running XP without a call to their tech support. While holding, I connected to my VPN and was able to download the software that way. the tech support person did not have any explanation for this, and could not offer any assistance with the frame itself, only the EasyShare software (frame support is available only M-F, apparently).
The EasyShare software makes no attempt to connect to the frame, and the manual is slightly above the level of a Dr. Seuss story, giving no hint at first about how to get pictures from the computer to the frame. I finally got the pictures to appear from my USB drive, but I wanted to be able to upload them to the frame itself. It seems there is no way to do this.
So this item is going back to Amazon. Too bad...it was a nice Father's Day present, but this may be one reason why Kodak is doing so poorly in the marketplace...under-delivering on its products
