Good deal for the price/points
I have had this nifty picture keychain for a few days now. I am pretty happy with it. It comes with software, cord, and the keychain. The software is easy to install, however you cannot open it unless the keychain is plugged into the computer. Also, if you want to upload photos you need to have the keychain plugged in and set to updating before opening the program or it won't upload anything. Those were the 2 things that caused me some problems, but once I figured it out, it works great and is very easy to use! You can also for example take photos from one computer put them on the keychain and use the keychain to tranfer them to another computer. The picture quality is fairly good, some light colors (whites and very pale skin colors) look really washed out/bright/blurry (this why it got 4 stars instead of 5). Since the screen is a square it chops off some of your pictures, but you can use the software to adjust the cropping to your liking. Not sure why these keychains don't use rectangular screens! Battery charges by being plugged into your computer. Charge a minimum of 4 hours before first use. Also, you can set it so it has an automatic picture changing slide show or you can manually change pictures by hitting the arrow button. Well worth the 75 points. I am going to order some more and fill them with photos and use as gifts for the grandparents! Great way to show off your kids or grandkids!

I love the portability!!!
I waited and drank a lot of pepsi to get this.. The technical part is that you cannot use the viewer UNLESS the USB is plugged into to keychain AFTER you download the program.. That part confused me at first.. But it works great after that.. even used it on two different computers in my house... Wish there were more options like titles for pics.. But overall I love my keychain. I also wish we had a choice on the other colors. Silver is a bit boring.. but the delivery time was excellent.. Got it in 3 days!!! All in all .. I love it..!!!

Overall very nice item - great gift idea!
My only complaint was that it took a little trying to get it started with the software and uploading photos. But after that, very easy. Nice product, would definitely buy again!

Keep trying, it will work....
Ok so yes all the reviews are true as far as it not necessarily working on the first try however... I called tech support and they said sometimes there is a glitch in the install program. If it doesn't work the first time, completely uninstall it and reinstall. Also it helps if you don't try to upload all 60 photos at once. Do like 4 max at a time. It will work on XP. Good Luck!

My Opinion
After reading other people's reviews about the Coby I was hesitant to get one. But I've had mine for a few days now and I am very happy with it. Nothing about it was hard to do. I installed the software, plugged in the Coby then ran the picture viewer in that order. You must first choose the photos from your own library then they get added to the left side. Then out of the pics you just added you must select the ones you want to add to the Coby and they get added to the right side. Then you click the button on the top right corner of the screen and it begins the actual process.
It would be nice if a protector or cover was made for this because the screen is very easy to scratch. You may also need to crop the photos so they are viewable the way you like. I removed the chain and hook attached to it and it is hooked to my keychain by the small circle, you'll see if you get one.
Overall, I do like it. I think that the price is still to high for it though. I would pay around $10 for it from a store.
