I purchace one at the Shack and had to return,it could only show 500 files per jpeg cd.or 500 photos and it cost $10.00 more than this one. The picture looks great and it has RCA jacks on the back to hook up to sound system.

Great device for the money. by HedgeMage "Mom, geek, etc." on amazon.com Jan 23, 2010
