The software is NOT up to date. No Mac OS 10.6

The product description says Mac OS 10.2 or later, but that's incorrect. It only supports up to 10.5.2 as stated during installation. I have 10.6 so this couldn't work. I called support and they just said there is no new software and they only have the original install so I was told to return it. This product description needs to be updated. No more Coby products, that's for sure.

Pros
  • Has a digital clock and calendar
Cons
  • boring packaging

Reviews are correct

I had read previous reviews on this but thought I would give it a try and bought it as a gift for my husband (because I really liked that this keychain was on a clip instead normal key clip) . I've tried several times to install the required software on my home computer without success and it just didn't work (I'm not a computer genius but I know how to do it). I ended up having to send it back and buy something else. I wasn't expecting anything great, but I figured it would at least work. Give

Pros
  • built in Li-ion battery
Cons
  • low

Not suitable for portable DVD players

I bought 4 of these (3 as gifts) and only one person was able to get them to work - and that was with a lot of hassle, including the need to use a different connection cable. I've tried it on my desktop and laptop with the same results. The Coby troubleshooters walked me through a few cycles for the one I left and when nothing worked told me to return the unit as it was faulty. Instead I gave it to a geek who tried a new cable and some other tricks and finally got it working. The idea is great…

Pros
  • CSTN full color LCD display, displays JPEG, GIF and BMP image files
Cons
  • Functionality

Great gift, especially for the price.

I bought this for my mother, a proud grandmother who loves to show off pictures of her grandchildren. It's nice and small (which is to be expected from a keychain) and has lots of photos on it. a simple thing. It took her about 15 minutes to set it up and get it up and running, uploading photos, etc. The photos are a bit grainy, but it's not terrible by any means. Since the photo viewing area is tiny (it's a keychain after all!), it's perfect for grandma to show off her photos, it's small…

Pros
  • Stores over 60 photos and has a photo slideshow mode
Cons
  • Unsure
