Manage your photos from the web
The highlight of the product is its wireless capability that lets you synchronize the digital frame with both your Windows PC and Kodak’s free online service, the EasyShare Gallery. This allows you to upload pictures on the internet and view them later on your digital frame. You could also transfer images onto the 128 MB of internal memory available on the EX-1011.

Once the images have been loaded and placed in folders, you can make slideshows of them, choosing from 12 different transitions; these can all be shared via Wi-Fi with other owners of Kodak digital frames.
If you wish to transfer and view large batches of photographs, you can take advantage of the USB slots found on the EX-1011. These slots support such drives as Compact Flash, SD, xD, memory sticks etc. You may also use these to stream files in MP3, AVI, MOV, MPEG 1, and MPEG 4 formats from a PC to your digital frame.

Images are displayed on a 10-inch diagonal LCD screen at a resolution of 800x480 pixels. The display is bordered by a black inner frame and a swappable outer one. User interface is thankfully very simple and can be controlled either with the buttons present on the frame itself, or through the handy remote that ships with the EX-1011. When not in use, the remote controller can be holstered into its cover and snapped onto the frame’s backside. Here, you’ll find slots for hanging the frame on a wall, or mounting it on a flip-out stand. The EX-1011 can be powered by a direct AC source and does not run on batteries.

Review

The Kodak EX1011 is an excellent digital picture frame with great features. The images display very brightly and clearly. The wireless features allow you to add and remove images on the web using your Kodak Gallery Account.

The setup was easy and it does not take long to get your images displayed. The frame needs to be unpacked, plugged in and memory card added. Pretty straightforward.

Wireless Features

In a few steps we were able to get the frame added to the wireless network and the associated with our Kodak Gallery account. Now all of the images can be updated and managed from the web. Currently the only image management service that the frame supports is Kodak Gallery. It would be nice to see Kodak open the frame up to Flicker, or Picasa.

All in All this is an excellent frame with great features. This is not the least expensive frame on the market but you do get an excellent value for your money.

Image quality is great as is the design of the frame. However as a hands off frame as a gift to the technologically challenged this is not a great option. Sure you can let it get pictures off of the Kodak Gallery, but if you updated your photos online, you need intervene with the frame to pick up the changed pictures. For grandparents this is not an ideal choice. It should seamlessly stream the new pictures onto the device as other frames do.
