TERRIFIC or AWFUL: depends how you use it

I would give this FIVE stars, but ONLY FOR CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.Don't buy it for your own home! It is PERFECT if you have a lonely, elderly relative who shies away from computers & email but likes to see photos of her grandchildren. That's where it shines. This enhances your contact with a loved one if you can't be there daily. Otherwise, FORGET IT. Great for a senior care or hospital patient (unless they have an incompatible phone system.)Recognize that you'll be paying $10 per month "forever...

Nice Gift....Service Needs Improving..... Expen$ive Upkeep

My sisters and brothers bought this for our 83-year old father.It's a great concept:Share photos from anyone in the family, from anywhere in the world, and without the need for a computer connection.He really loves it, and the fact that each morning there are new pictures, electronic greeting cards from all of us, local weather, and other "channels" like "This Day In History" from The History Channel and CNN News.The setup is very easy, and picture quality good enough.He has something to look forward...

Buyer Beware

I have been using Ceiva for the last three years and found it to be an ok service for me, good to my parents who use it.During the three years, I have uploaded hundreds of photos to their service but now I am thinking of switching to a more affordable platform with better functionality (see URL:http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/avcards/7edc/)HOWEVER...Please be warry that termination of your Ceiva service means that all your digitial photo files will be deleted.Ceiva offers no way for you to retrieve...

Ceiva 3: Wireless and Working

At 85 years young, my Dad is not interested in fiddling with new technology, it just has to work or he's not interested. The Ceiva 3 as advertised in a magazine seemed ideal. Further homework, research, and reading Amazon's reviews suggested a cautious approach . . . Here is what I learned.The Ceiva 3 Limited Warranty of 360 days only applies if you buy from the Ceiva Store or other retail outlet (I was told by Ceiva Customer Care (2/14/06) that E-Bay auction purchases do not count as a retail outlet...

Great Idea, But Poor Quality and Service

I bought one of these for my grandmother for Christmas so she could be sent baby pictures, family pictures etc. without a computer.Fantastic - she has absolutely loved it.(We had to set it up for her - that was not necessarily intuitive and took longer than you'd expect.)But now it's only February, and the thing is broken - frozen on one picture for days. (And no, it's not locked.We've tried everything.) Customer service operates under limited hours and has impossible wait times; they're not available...
