Product Description
Those old photo frames atop your dresser, desk, night stand and on your walls are vignettes of memories captured as prints in the era of film cameras. The digital-camera makes available a technology where photos don't have to be displayed as prints. They're displayed on screen, much like that of a TV set or a computer monitor. This frame uses LCD flat-panel technology and, at 2-1/4" deep, fits almost anywhere a standard frame would. The difference - this frame is not limited to display only 1 or a few pictures. A digital picture frame can display dozens (if not hundreds) of images off a digital-memory card.
Here's a dandy way to display all those digital photos you're accumulating. Display one or all (in slideshow mode) directly from an SD, MMC, xD, or CompactFlash memory card. It's a great way to view your favorites on a table or on a wall - just like a regular picture frame. Yet COBY DP772 adds a unique feature. It has built-in speakers so you can play MP3 and WMA music files from your memory cards. You can even create photo slideshows with music. The DP772 has a USB port that lets you play photos stored on digital media drives. Its LED backlit screen delivers bright images for viewing in almost any situation.
This is a perfect frame to give to your parents and grandparents. Let them see pictures of you all the time from a memory card you provide them. It has a dual-volt AC adapter for international capability. Plays Most MP4 and AVI Video Files from Digital Cameras Photo Slideshow with or without Music AV Output for play through with Home Theater Systems SD - MMC - xD - CF Card Slots Full-Size USB Port for use with Flash Memory Drives USB Port for Fast File Transfers Integrated Stereo Speakers Interchangeable Faceplate (Black or White) to match your decor Detachable Stand Table use or Wall Mountable Unit Dimensions - 9.45 x 6.95 x 2.24 (WHD)

Price vs features.......2007-09-22
Doesn't get any better than this-own 2 and gifted 3. Taht says it all
Coby DP102 10-Inch Widescreen Digital Photo .......2007-09-22
I think most of the reviews linked to this frame must be for older models. I bought this along with the Philips 8" frame and for the ease of use, number of compatible memory cards and resolution the Coby was much better than the Philips. In fact, I just logged in to order two more for Xmas presents. The only drawback is the quality of materials for the frame. The Philips has a nicer design and feel.
The resolution on this frame is 800x480. I put in a memory card from my Nikon D40x (10.2 MP) and displayed the slideshow. I was suprised at the quality. There were no issues with stretching or cutting off of pictures as described in other reviews. Since this was a gift, I didn't have a chance to test the video options but for the price you can't beat this frame!
Good for the money paid.......2007-09-15
The display wasn't as good as I expected, but this one is the budget one, so I'm willing to take that cost. Overall, it was original gift.
Widescreen can be annoying.......2007-09-13
Of the 10,000+ pictures I could put on a memory card for display, only 100 or so (scanned in from negatives) fill this display sideways. For some reason I thought it would be OK for the majority of my digital pictures to be 4:3 instead of 16:9. Now I realize I am highly annoyed by the blank areas on the left/right left by 4:3 pictures. I am not going to change my format either because 16:9 is a huge waste of display when a lot of your photo art is taken portrait versus landscape.
The random seems to start from the beginning (same seed) when you turn it off in the evening and turn it back on the next day, thus you see the same thing, over and over (i.e. I have 400 loaded on an SD card but see the same 60 or so during my limited viewing time).
Excellant piece of equipment.......2007-09-09
We are very happy with the DP102. It does all that it claims. The ability to show a slide show and play background music from the same sd chip is amazing.
Product Description
The MP-C885 from Coby is an inexpensive MP3 player that also functions as a USB stick. So in addition to playing your favorite music, you can easily transport any type of digital file from computer to computer. It can hold up to 1GB of files, so it has plenty of room for both. There's even an integrated microphone, so you can use it as a digital voice recorder too. ID3 and LRC support for song and synchronized lyric information display Convenient integrated USB plug (with cap) USB 2.0 Support OS Support - Windows 98SE, 2000, Me, XP or higher, and Macintosh OS X or newer 3.5mm Headphone Jack Unit Dimensions - 3.58 x 1.1 x 0.75 (WxHxD)
Amazon.com Product Description
Small enough to fit in the palm of your hand but loaded with features, the Coby MP-C885 MP3 player lets you listen to your favorite tunes on the bus, at the park, and just about anywhere else. The device measures a mere 3.58 by 1.1 by 0.75 inches (W x H x D), with a removable end cap that reveals a direct USB plug for connecting to a computer (no cable required). More significantly, the MP-C885 offers 1 GB of integrated flash memory, so you can store roughly 16 hours of MP3 music or 32 hours of WMA music--more than enough for a marathon training run or a cross-country flight. And for those occasions when you need to transport data rather than music, the MP- C885 can handle that, too, with the ability to store JPEG photos, text documents, and more. The mobile storage function is ideal for transporting business documents across the country or serving as an overflow backup for your digital camera's memory card.
It's easy to navigate through the audio player's contents thanks to the high-contrast LCD display, which displays the song title and artist information. And as with the best MP3 players, the MP-C885 offers a number of handy extras, such as a built-in digital FM tuner, support for Windows Media DRM-10 online subscription services, an integrated microphone for digital voice recording, ID3 and LRC support for song and synchronized lyric information display, and a high-speed USB 2.0 interface (up to 40x faster than USB 1.0). The MP-C885, which runs on a single AAA battery (included), works with Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, and XP and Mac OS X operating systems and carries a 90-day warranty.
What's in the Box
MP-C885 MP3 player, professional stereo earphones, USB extension cable, installation CD, AAA battery, user's manual.

Difficult to navigate.......2007-09-07
I liked the compact size, easy download capability, the 2G memory and the price however it was difficult to store and then retrieve the files once they were on the device. Obvious you lose some functionality when you pay less than $30 for a storage device. All the files need to be set up before you download the them, i.e. playlists, favorites, etc. becuase once the items are stored it is not 'one button' friendly to scroll through the stored files. I have a Toshiba Gigabeat and love the ease of use, simple buttons located conveniently when walking or running and even driving. I bought the Coby as a gift for my sweetie who is a runner. I know we will be replacing the Coby for a device that is easy to use in the near future and use this as a data memory stick only and not for music. If you don't mind spending hours trying to figure this out and don't want to scroll through music files while being active, it would be a great buy. Also, managing your files requires you to have ready access to a computer since you can't sort once files are stored on the device.
A good buy for pennies.......2007-09-01
With the 1 GB memory capacity of my Coby MP3 player I've had just enough to put all my favorites songs and play them over and over. The size of this MP3 player is such that it is quite easy to hide it away, in case you want to enjoy it while attending important ceremonies. And if you want more variety, you can always put your favorite radio station on it. You can also record your own messages to use it as the best way to help you remember things you may otherwise forget (such as getting milk on your way home).
Junk.......2007-08-23
I purchased this product just a little over 3 weeks ago and it has already given me problems. One of the selector buttons doesn't always respond and I don't think it worth the time or money to send back to get this reoccuring problem fixed. I don't recommend this product to anyone.
Amazing little device.......2007-08-22
I've used this device for about 2 weeks now and so far it has been wonderful. Sound quality is excellent, FM tuner works extremely well, and the storage capacity (1GB) was exactly what I needed. And I must also say that it is a beautiful looking piece of electronics.
When deciding to buy this player, I was concerned by some of the reviews that say it is unreliable. I figured that getting all these features for 30 bucks was worth a shot. So far I have been extremely pleased, but if I do have any problems with this player I will be sure to update this review.
Everything but a charger.......2007-08-19
Works great but one problem. The manufacturer forgot to add a charger. You need to keep replacing the battery.

Broke down after a month.......2007-09-12
The buttons does not work after a month or so. The sound is very tinny... but that's what you get for a small cd player. However, the buttons not working is really bad thing--you cannot use the play button properly--have to press it several times and then maybe it works.
Do not buy it...
Coby CX-CD241.......2007-08-24
This is great buy for someone who wants to listen to a book on CD, or a Yankees game, on the deck!
great.......2007-08-23
I just needed a small cd player for my baby's bedroom. This product bis just perfect if you don't need or want anything too sophisticated. It definitely does the job really well. I'm very pleased with it
DONOT BUY THIS CD PLAYER.......2007-07-17
I got this CD player two months back and the play and repeat buttons are not working any more. I can't use it any more. Even though it is cheap it is not worth even that much. Try to find another decent CD player. I am not at all satisfied with this.
Can't beat the price. Bought mine last week and it came with a powercord........2007-06-13
This is perfect for casual non audio-phile indoor/outdoor use. I bought this to have some tunes outside while myself and a few other workmen are restoring a barn on my property. It is exactly what I needed. I wanted something I didn't mind getting a bit messed up (paint splatters, dings, etc). It's small, lightweight, inexpensive and very functional. The sound quality is decent (especially outdoors with other ambient noise) and though it definitely doesn't have some cooler features (shuffle, etc), it works great for what I wanted it for. I was worried after I read some of the reviews (after I purchased it) that it didn't come with a power cord, but mine did, so I was very happy I didn't have to go out and find one that fit, though I imagine that wouldn't have been that difficult at Radio Shack or some other type of store. All around, I'd say it's a 4 stars for what it is. If you're expecting amazing indoor sound, I'd rate it lower, but it's obviously for pool-side or kids room style use. And if you rate it on what it's meant to be used for, it's decent.

Great CD Player.......2007-09-22
For the price I paid for this CD Player, it sounds great. Sometimes Coby makes nice products. I would recommend this CD Player to anyone low on cash.
awesome little thing!.......2007-09-05
has way exceeded all expectations! this is an awesome sounding little player. easy to use, has a great big sound, great bass and no skipping, and thats a plus as i use it alot waiting at doc offices and other appointments. the only con to this is, it seems that the batteries dont last so long. however with the battery compartment outside the player it is really easy to replace the batteries. no need to open the player and remove the disc to reload batteries. I love it! thanks!
Lesson Learned.......2007-08-21
People who use Amazon are hardly the type who have the time to return defective items. this thing didn't work out of the box. So it cost me 30 bucks to learn to limit Amazon to books etc no Big ticket items ever!
Horrible Product.......2007-07-09
This is one of the worst products I have ever purchased! Operating instructions were very unclear and performance of product was woeful!

Good Customer Service.......2007-09-05
The company I purchased the personal CDplayer from, Coby, has good customer service as I discovered when I had to call about a technical problem in the operation of the player. I described the problem to a supportive tech person, who was easy to reach by phone--no long menu of choices to listen before I talked to a real person. The player has to be returned to the company and it will be replaced by Coby at no extra charge except for a small shipping charge.
CD Player.......2007-09-01
I bought this when my other player just gave up the ghost. I had it for a very long time. I can't complain about this new one except it seems to use up batteries very fast. Other than that it works just fine.
works but cheap.......2007-08-31
I bought this product so I could listen to CD's while in bed. When I got the CD out of the box and attempted to use it, I had to readjust the headphone jack several times to get the sound to work on both sides. The place to put in the batteries was cheap plastic and will break easily if mishandled. This product does work, but, you must handle with care for fear of breakage. I feel this product will at most last a year because it is made so cheaply. If you want a CD player then pay a little extra to get one that is made better.

Customer Reviews:
pleasantly surprised.......2007-08-15
I purchased this player 3 weeks ago after having tried several other inexpensive portable DVD players and eventually returning them all due to malfunctions.
I wanted a player for my 7 year old daughter and thought I'd give this one a try since it was designed with kids in mind and was in our budgeted range (cheap!). I've been very impressed with the unit.
Included in the box was the player, an ac adapter, a car adapter, a battery pack that doubles as a table stand, a remote with batteries, stereo headphones, and a carrying case.
I've used the player with DVDs, music CDs, and picture CDs and it works fine with all of them. From what I've been able to determine, it only displays wide screen mode, so some of the pictures and movies seem stretched, but that hasn't bothered my daughter at all.
Battery life lasted about 2 hours with video, about 2.5 hours with video off (listening to music).
The only cons that I've noticed with the unit, other than the inability to turn off the wide screen video:
1)The carrying case does not work to mount the unit on a headreast in the car. It is totally enclosed and is strictly for carrying the unit around. The power adapters do not fit in the carrying case with the unit.
2) The screen does well when looking at it from different angles from the sides, but you quickly lose the image when you look at it more from the top or bottom.
3) Several other players that I tried would pick up where you left off in a movie when the unit was restarted - I couldn't find that feature on this one.
4) Typical of all cheap portable players, the sound through the speakers isn't good - though it is louder than any of the other players I tried. Sound quality through the headphones is great and it even sounded excellent when I hooked it up to decent quality computer speakers.
Overall, I am very pleased with this player. I seems very durable compared to the other units I tried and is great for keeping kids entertained in the car on on an airplane. The screen is small at 4.5", but its image is as good as the larger units I tried. This unit is small enough that kids can just hold it in their hands - though a car mount would have been a nice feature. The unit is not much larger than a portable music CD player, though it is thicker and heavier due to the large battery. If you're looking for an inexpensive DVD player, I highly recommend this unit
coby tf dvd450/portable.......2007-06-30
I LIKE THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE IT IS SMALL ENOUGH BUT YET YOU CAN SEE ENOUGH. IT IS JUST CONVENIENT ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE TRAVELLING EVERYDAY. ALL YOU NEED IS THIS EQUIPMENT WHERE YOU CAN WATCH A MOVIE OR LISTEN TO MP3. ALL IN ONE.
THE BATTERY SEEMS TO LAST LONG AND IT IS NOT THAT HEAVY LIKE THE OTHER DVD PORTABLE PLAYER.
Excellent product that is lasting.......2007-06-06
I've has several personal DVD players. I am not rough on them, but I do enjoy bringing them along when I road trip or travel. None of them have been as sturdy as this little gadget!
Since this DVD player was made for a child, it is made to endure rough traveling. It fell off my desk (onto a carpeted floor) but CONTINUED playing the DVD without a skip or hesitation!
I've had this player for two months, and it has withstood everyday use and plays DVD's without a problem. The screen may be small, but people are watching their iPod's nano-screens, and this is a IMax screen in comparison! 4.5 inches is DIAGONAL. The widescreen dimensions are lovely when watching a widescreen DVD. The picture quality is pretty good, but there could be more options for color on the player.
Overall, this is an excellent DVD player and hold up well for travel.

Cute, but doesn't last.......2007-09-18
My 3 year old son received this as a gift for Christmas last year. I loved all the features, great sound, great picture, nice for trips to visit family two states away. The only thing I didn't like is that I had to take the player out of the case to change the disc. Would have been nice to have some way of rigging it so I didn't have to completely take it apart. Unfortunately, it only lasted about 6 months. Brand new DVDs started reporting "Wrong disc" after playing for only a few minutes. Now it constantly freezes up, or reads "Wrong disc" and won't play at all. Maybe it's just too sensitive and needs to spend all it's time indoors...not out on the highway? I will not buy Coby again after this.
Stay Away From Coby!.......2007-09-07
Although it feels like it's build quality is good, it really isn't. I've had two of these players over the past 1 1/2 years. I used them at home for my child (usually playing out to a TV) and when we're on the road (a few times a year). Both broke down in a similar fashion, the controls became inoperable. Of course the warranty (90 days) had expired. Again, although this item feels like it's solidly built it always craps out. The only reason I purchased this twice was I figured the first was a fluke and it really is inexpensive compared to the others out there. I guess you could look at it as an item that needs to be repurchased every 6 to 10 months. What a shame. Perhaps it's worth spending the extra dollars for a better made item.
Does NOT last!!!.......2007-09-06
We were very pleased with it first 2 months, however, the problems then began. First, the battery door broke.Minor repair we made. Second, we kept getting the "no disc" error. After working with it for several hours, I called Coby and was told the unit was defected. Needless to say, I was told there was nothing they could do about it although it was new. Told it only had 90 day warranty, so basically throw your defected unit away and purchase a new one. After researching, I have found several others have had this very same problem but the company was unwilling to address this frequent complaint! Save your money!
Looks good but is flauty.......2007-08-20
Bought this last Christmas and it worked great for one plane trip. After that the screen would cut out after a couple of minutes.
Now its useless.
Good looking but poor quality.
I would not recommend wasting your time on it.
Was good for about 6 months.......2007-08-11
This was a good DVD player while it lasted. I got this for my daughter for Christmas. We used it probably about 30 times and it broke down about two months ago. My husband finally took a look at it (it had an error message that said "open") and the latch for opening the case broke. I called Coby customer service and they cannot do anything about it since the warranty is good for only 60 DAYS. What a waste of money. They didn't even have any nearby repair shops to recommend! I'm going on vacation in a week and now I have to buy another NEW DVD player. Needless to say I'm extremely disappointed. We did not abuse the product and in fact, hardly used it. Will never buy another Coby product again. I recommend highly the warranty for a year because YOU'LL NEED IT! Just some sage advice from a very burnt customer.

good product.......2007-08-21
this is a good product for the money. it skips sometimes - when bumped, etc, but its a great buy, i'm glad i got it.
Don't Waste Your Money.......2007-05-05
I bought this CD Player in both the yellow and the blue for my daughters, and both are a piece of junk. Oh, they work o.k. if you are sitting still and holding the jack for the ear phone in just the right spot. But I have borrowed both of them for my evening walks and they suck. Any movement at all make the CD skip. I don't know about most people but if I'm sitting at home I play my CD on my stereoor computer. It's when I'm out walking or shopping that I use a discman. The only upside to this is that if the kids break or lose them it won't be any big loss for the price or quality.
coby cd player.......2007-04-04
once I got one that worked, its great. thanks to Amazon for the great way they handled the problem.
Completely Defective.......2007-03-29
The CD worked fine when I first got it. I played it about 5 times and then it just clicked off after about 1 minute. I tried different CDs, read the instructions through, and it just doesn't work! Since I threw away the packaging and receipt as soon as I got it, I can't apply for a refund or return it so I really lost out here. I definitely would warn you not to buy this item. Or at least keep your receipt and the packaging so you can send it back if it quits after six playings like mine did. I also will probably not buy anything else by Coby unless I can get a guarantee of return/refund if it doesn't work.
Thin and light, inexpensive and adequate, providing..........2007-03-18
I'd had it up to here with three Panasonics and a Sony personal CD player which, despite costing as much as eighty bucks each, were beginning to skip, repeat, get stuck, and accept some CD's but not others. Rather than hold my breath each time I fed a CD to one of the players, I decided that for ten-fifteen bucks this one was a better deal, even if I end up replacing it every six months.
So far so good. It's playing the CDs my other players were rejecting. The headphones are OK, but you'll probably want to pitch them in favor of the cheap ones that came with a previous Panasonic or Sony. There's no buffer whatsoever, so don't plan on using it on the go. It doesn't have AC, but the batteries install easily and quickly from the bottom, rather than from the inside (a bad design feature of some machines). There are no inputs/outputs other than the headphone jack, but that's all you need to input it to another amp-speaker. The buttons are tiny and don't project from the surface--definitely inconvenient for klutzes or for night-time use, especially given its featherweight, fly-away lightness. There's no gratuitous "bass boost" or other useless add-ons.
So take it slow and steady, keep extra double A's on hand, order whatever color is cheapest, and hope to enjoy trouble-free service from this little plastic frisbee long enough to recoup your investment.
[UPDATE: This thing is still playing the disks that confound my $40-80 older Panasonics and Sonys. HOWEVER: 1. The lack of buffer protection will cause the sound to be interrupted by even slight movements, so it's not for joggers or skateboarders; 2. I'm getting no more than TEN hours playing time from two alkaline batteries which, when combined with the lack of an AC option, could make this a costly proposition unless you're alternating two sets of rechargeable batteries. A bit of a nuisance and now you may be spending enough to get a skip-free machine with AC adaptor.]

Amazon.com Product Description
Take your favorite tunes on the road or to the park with this portable CD boombox. Sporting a unique, rounded chassis with red highlights that's way more fashionable than standard boxy models, the CX-CD241 is an ideal choice for music fans who want a little extra style with their sounds. Fortunately for listeners, the cool shape doesn't detract from the music, as the CD player still includes all the basics and a few extras. Among the features are standard skip, search, and repeat one and all functions, along with programmable track memory for listeners who want to create a custom soundtrack. When the CDs are played out, listeners can turn to the AM/FM tuner for a less-structured playlist.
The CX-CD241 owes its audio performance to its 1-bit digital-to-analog converter, which ensures a clean CD sound, and its pair of wide-ranging side speakers. Rounding out the feature set is a digital two-digit LED display, a telescoping FM antenna, and a flip-up carrying handle. The unit runs on either AC power or six C-size batteries (not included) and measures a compact 8.25 by 5.5 by 8.5 inches (W x H x D). And as with all Coby audio products, the CX-CD241 is backed by a 90-day warranty.

Customer Reviews:
Withstands toddler abuse.......2007-09-14
We have this CD player in our kitchen so that my toddler and I can enjoy his favorite tunes while I'm making dinner or whatnot. He climbs onto the counter and gives this stereo such abuse, and touches all the parts you're never supposed to touch on a CD player, and yet it still works perfectly! I'm really impressed by this machine. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that is does make a quiet electronic "hum" when it's plugged in. It doesn't interfere with the quality of the music at all. But if you're in the room and all else is quiet, you'll notice it. For this reason, we keep it unplugged when we're not playing a CD. Otherwise this CD player is great!
Very frustrating!!.......2007-08-10
I bought this product so my 3 year old son could listen to music before going to sleep in his room. It is terrible. There is a constant hum as long as it is plugged in. The volume of the hum depends on how the power cord is angled at the back of the unit. The CD player never worked right. After a few songs there is a "ER" message on the screen. Most of the time I can't even get it to play a CD. I'm very disappointed. Don't buy this product.
Broken.......2007-05-22
Sadly we received the product broken. It wouldn't play beyond the half way mark of any cd. In requesting a replacement the company returned the money without any comunication. It was rather strange but they refunded the money so one cant't complain.
Just Say NO.......2007-05-06
I should have read the reviews closer myself before buying this....mine just inexplicably quit working after only having it a few months. Dont buy this piece of junk...there is a reason it is priced cheap.
Great for the price.......2007-03-09
We bought this for our 6 year olds birthday present. We think it is excellent value for money and he just loves it. We had no problems with missing parts etc. The sound quality is not great but for the price it is exactly what we wanted
