Yes, there's a subscription for $10 a month, or less if you bundle it. But it's well worth it to to be able to send photos to your frame or to your family's frames. I can't imagine having to ship a memory card to my brother to upload my photos, and emailing my photos takes too long. I used to use Flickr, but I wanted to be able to view my photos when I wasn't using my computer. When I bought a frame for my grandmother, I set it up for her, so she didn't have to do anything technical. Everyone on her floor at the assisted care living facility loves seeing her new photos from all of us.

Tue, 08 Jul 2008 14:16:38 +0000 http://www.highdisplay.com/ceiva-photo-frames/#comment-410 While the new Ceiva frames have some unique features, after extensive product testing of both Ceiva and other competitors' frames, Which Frame? has identified Ceiva as one of the digital picture frame brands to avoid. While the frame itself is fine, taking advantage of the wireless capabilities is almost a nightmare. Ceiva advertises all of the wireless functions; however, once you purchase the frame, you find out you need a wireless or broadband adapter for another $40. Then, once you get that, you find out that you can sign up for a free account on Ceiva's website. The account is free, but Picture Plan costs extra, and the account is completely useless withouth Picture Plan which costs up to $159.95 per year or $15.95 per month. There are tricks around every turn it seems with Ceiva's frames. The box advertises 3 free months with Picture Plan, but when you try to sign up, it only offers 1.5 months and requires your credit card information for billing purposes. Which Frame? recommends Kodak as the best brand in digital picture frames with respect to quality, ease-of-use and reliability. Please visit http://www.whichframe.com for more information.
