 Rating:  - Style over Content - Disappointing PurchaseLooks great in the box, but its ease of use and lack of intuitive menu's makes this a nightmare to use.

Via the menus you can also set the date/time which it will display as an option, and you can set it to scroll photos. HOWEVER, and ... Read More Rating: - How to fix the aspect ratioBought this a while ago and was initially disappointed due to the aspect ratio problems outlined in the other reviews. (ie you either get a stretched out picture in 16:9 or a small picture with black porders in 4:3) However, you can get around these problems with a bit of manipulation of the photos. The trick is to crop them to 16:9 with your favourite photo editor. Then resize the photo back to 4:3 by reducing the size for the width only to 75% (keep height at 100%). This will result ...
