Cheap HP DreamScreen 130 13-Inch Wireless Connected Screen Review
The design factor is great - this thing just looks superb - it is very 'apple- like' and fits right in. The touch frame function is cool and the remote is very effective and stores away in a slot on the back of the frame.
Everything is set up very easily including the wi-fi, which took about 30seconds to find our network. We had already set up our Snapfish and Pandora accounts and they both work really well.
You can e mail straight into your account and see the new pictures very quickly. There is also Snapfish iPhone app. which allows you to send multi pictures at one time - great. This would be useful for anyone who wants to send pictures home while they are away. There are a number of ways to show the calendar or use the alarm too and all very easy to use. We also love the weather feature for it's ease of operation.
The sound is adequate but we decided to have a line out to our Onkyo i-pod music doc nearby and the sound is amazing.
We have a new iMac computer - so the streaming deal does not work but we knew that kind of, before we bought it. We hoped that HP would offer an update and we e-mailed and spoke to HP but as of now they have NO plans to update the software to make the Dreamscreen Mac - compatible. This is short sighted of HP because there's almost nothing out there which is able to stream from a Mac.
Some reviewers have complained that they can't access framechannel or picassa or other stuff but then maybe they need a 'tablet' machine and not a digital photo frame. Stop moaning!...This thing looks good and it works really well. We think that it is well featured and a great size (forget all those 7" screens)but it should be able to stream from a Mac.
