I was very pleased with this product -I have approximately 14,000 images on a portable hard drive and no more storage room for hard copy albums -this is an ideal way to view my images quickly and conviently rather than linking the hard drive to a computer. The digital album is very portable and easy to carry and store.
I had read this could store up to 40,000 photos-I obviously must of misinterpreted this information as the devise only has a 4GB memory, however you can attach USB sticks or memory cards upto 20GB to view your images (I have not been able to connect my portable hard drive to the album as I assume its memory is too large to read) but I have several memory sticks and SD cards that I used before I purchased the hard drive so have been able to put these in the album. As previous reviewers have mentioned you do not have the option of organising your folders on the album itself -it will display them only as you have stored them in the files on the cards or USBs. The album will double as a digital photo frame (either on battery power or mains). It is very easy to use which is as well because it comes with a minimal instruction leaflet (although there is a website if you require additional information).
The view screen is approximately the equivalent of 7x5 inch photo and gives good clarity of the images.
