Just does not work
I bought this frame a few months ago. It stopped working after a couple of hours. Mind you, I didnt use any wifi. The frame just kept rebooting itself. I replaced the frame thinking I just got a defective piece, but the same problem in the second frame as well.
As in other reviews, customer service is just non-existent.
Given the excellent set of features, I so much the frame to work. But I guess, I have to look elsewhere.
I do not recommend this frame to anyone.

Great gift for non-techie relatives
I bought this in order to share photos with my mother-in-law. The free momentolive website is very easy to use and lets me and my brother in law send photos to the frame with ease. The only minor troubleshooting I needed to do was getting the frame to recognize my wireless network, but once I had that figured out, it was smooth sailing all the way.

Lukewarm Excitement, but even so
I live in San Francisco. My mom lives in Vienna, Austria. We have two kids. I am an early adopter. She has Wi-Fi at home. I use Flickr. If you recognize your own situation, this gadget may be for you. If you don't need Wi-Fi, don't bother with it - there must be cheaper and better ones. I would say it worked OK at best. The Wi-Fi worked erratic, sometimes it would see my network, sometimes it wouldn't. Don't tell me that I use unusual Wi-Fi settings - I don't. All my other computers work fine, and besides, I don't care. Just make the thing so it just works. Rant #2: What's up with the dead space of the screen? Why is the only picture that fill the entire screen the settings screen? Why do my pictures show much smaller? Now the praise: With a memento account, you can actually map a Flickr album feed directly on to the frame. What that means is that I can show my mom the newest family pics without her doing anything, I just post them to the Flickr album. So, 5 out of 10 for this gadget. +5 for the boldness and the possibilities, -5 for the execution.

i-mate Momento 70
After reading all of the poor reviews of this product, I was a little hesitant about buying it. However, it happened to come up at a discounted price through a "Deal a day" site that I look at, and I decided to for it.
After receiving it in the mail, I plugged it in and followed all of the on screen instructions. In under 10 minutes I was adding pictures to my library in Windows Media Player and seeing them pop up on the screen of this frame. I had absolutely no difficulty getting this connected to my wireless network.
The screen looks great, the features I've used so far are good...it seems like this is a pretty decent product overall.
I just wanted to let people out there know that this does work well, despite some poor reviews.
Also, in case it matters, the programs/hardware I am using are:
Windows Vista Home Premium
Windows Media Player 11
AT&T U-Verse Internet (so I use their 2Wire wireless modem)

Overall Awesome Frame - Size a Little Too Small
The frame has a great look. I was able to connect it to my wireless home network in no time. It was able to see the computers in my home network easily except for some reason it was not able to see my work laptop running XP, but was able to see my desktop with XP and my personal laptop with Vista, just fine.
Being connected to internet 24x7 is awesome. Sending pictures from MomentoLive is cool. You can bulk upload your pictures at MomentoLive site and the frame is notified of the new pictures and then it downloads them locally (caches the pictures in the frame memory) and plays them. You can also specify a personal message along with the pictures uploaded. The message gets displayed when the frame displays the notification that it has received new pictures. However if the pictures are big (which they usually are now-a-days) uploading too many pictures does not quite work very well at MomentoLive site.
The MomonetoLive site also features downloading pictures from other sites like flickr etc and feeding them to the frame. There are several options there.
Overall it is an awesome product for the price. The only thing about my frame that I did not like is that it was 7". I would recommend getting 10" instead of this one if you can, which I think is pretty decent size.
The colors and resolution in this frame is fairly decent.
One thing that was not quite intuitive for me was that in order to delete a picture from frame memory you have to click on info 'i' button on the remote and then choose the option to delete. The quick start guide did not mention this. The manual was not present in the box. I sent a support request which I got replied for after 3 or 4 days so customer service is really bad. By then I already located the manual online and found the answer to my question.

i-mate JASJAR  Mtekk has reviewed the i-mate JASJAR and writes “The i-mate JASJAR is one of the Pocket PC giants, sporting an impressive VGA screen (480 x 640 pixels), 3G network compatibility and Windows Mobile 5.0. This review has been a long time coming due to a previous ROM being very unresponsive and also appearing quite buggy. After the latest ROM release, i-mate have asked me to have another look at the JASJAR and write my review based on this latest ROM.
The JASJAR is only a tad wider and thicker than my old XDA II, but feels half as heavy again. The JASJAR appears to have a nice brushed aluminium finish with a solid construction. The clam shell like design gives it a micro laptop feel when the display is opened, and rubber feet on the underside help to grip on polished surfaces.
The display hinge has been well thought out and designed, and appears solidly constructed. The unit that i-mate have sent to me has slight movement in the hinge where I would expect it to be fairly firm. Since this is a review device, perhaps it has come into the hands of less gentle people than myself and the hinge has suffered slightly. This would be the weakest part of the device, and if it were my own, I would be very careful of the hinge. Another weakness of the hinge is the ingress of dust. With the territory I cover from Dubbo, there is a lot of fine red sand / dust that I would be fearful of getting into the joint and damaging it over time."
