br /From the time I plugged it to the wall it was music to my ears, I have a great collection of music stations that worked right of the bat, no problems, I can also check Facebook without powering my PC Computer or my Laptop.
br /I can also take it by the pool and listen to music all day long, it is a great product.

Major WiFi Connection problems March 2, 2010
JF-ATL (Atlanta, GA, US)

I bought this screen and overall, despite the many shortcomings the other reviewers described (most of which I agree with), I really like it. But one major problem renders it more trouble than it is worth for me - the WiFi connection is entirely unreliable. If I run the Weather app it will *always* connect to my WiFi network and update. Status always shows it connected. Yet if I leave the weather app on it updates sometimes and other times it just stops refreshing entirely and won't reconnect until I exit and re-enter the Weather app. I of course have the latest software installed. The interesting thing is, a friend of mine bought the same screen at the same time and is having the same problem - makes you wonder huh? So I called HP and spoke to a friend person name "Sam" somewhere overseas. Nothing against Sam but obviously he had a sheet he was working from and the sheet told him to tell me to Reset the Screen to Default Settings. I did that. It doesn't help. I tried to tell Sam this but feedback of this nature isn't part of the script and I have no doubt it didn't make it back to an engineering group somewhere. I suspect resetting to default software doesn't help because there is a bug in the screen software/firmware where when it can't get a connection it simply doesn't retry - but that's just my guess. Bottom line, the connectivity issues really makes the screen more trouble than it's worth. I want the Weather to always just refresh every 10 minutes like it's supposed to but 3-4 times a day I have to go manually refresh it (and when I do manually it connects 100% of the time).
I Expected MUCH Better from HP February 11, 2010

Sadly, the digital photo frame market is mostly flooded with no-name products that are seriously lacking in several areas. One would expect a "world class" company like HP could offer a much better product, but so far as several others have reported in their reviews, HP has largely failed. This product looks great on paper but is disappointing in reality.
br /
br /Consider this: You can buy (from HP no less) a very nice complete netbook computer with a better higher resolution screen, a much faster processor, WiFi, a full keyboard, expensive Li-Ion battery, hard drive, etc. for the SAME PRICE as this photo frame which has none of those things. So why does HP use a substandard 800 pixel display that makes your photos fuzzy? Why do they use a little toy processor that makes everything so slow as to be painful? Why isn't there a motion detector to turn the frame off when nobody has been in the room for a while to save energy?
br /
br /Why also, isn't this device UPnP-AV or DLNA compliant so it can automatically pull pictures off your PC, NAS or home server? Other less expensive devices offer this functionality. The "internet" features of this device are severely limited. You can buy devices at a third of the price that do much more (but granted have a smaller screen). And you can buy devices at a third of the price with a better, higher resolution screen, than the DreamScreen.
br /
br /I would suggest waiting until more companies figure out the "high end" digital frame market. There are new wireless offerings from Buffalo, D-Link and others that conform to home media standards (UPnP and/or DLNA) that put the DreamScreen to shame and can do much more. Hopefully such competition will force HP, and others, to get their act together.
Dream? Screen. February 10, 2010
Michael R. Bell
I am not your typical consumer who casually utlizes a purchased product. I generally try to utilze all the given benefits. In this case the impotus for purchasing this overpriced digital photo viewer was the fact that there was remote wireless conectivity to your media PC and that you could listen to the audio files and or view the video or jpg files that were placed into a shared files software that is included with the Dream?Screen. This was a gift for my beloved for Christmas and she is a technophobe in the true sense and I assured her upon receipt of this gift it would be a breeze based upon the desriptions from HP in their sales literature. I had seen some balking about the connectivity in a review and assumed that it was someone who does not understand this technology. Well I am living proof that this is NOT a simple piece of peripheral equipment to use. I have yet to achieve connectivity to the master media PC using my wireless network 802.11N I have installed the appropriate included software and to my dismay it claims that there is no Dream?Screen on my wireless network. I have yet to remedy this challenge. My windows Media Player can find it however I cannot share this audio Media.
