Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Ceiva 3 Digital Photo Receiver
Customer Review: TERRIFIC OR AWFUL: depends how you use it
Summary: 3 Stars
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" or else you lose the ability to change the 30 photos. You'll have to take digital photos and upload fresh ones frequently--or else this will be pointless.
They break, so you'll need an extended warrantee. Mine lasted just over a year, and the replacement seems to have a slight contrast problem on the left side--frustrating but not quite bad enough to return again.
I do believe the other reviewers who had problems, but my experience has been very positive. They've treated me very well in 2006, and the product did exactly what was needed. A bit of a 'crap shoot.'
I recommend setting the interval between photos to the maximum, 2 hours. I'd set it to 48 hours if I could. Set it too fast, and after half a day they will think, "I've already seen that slide show. I'm done with this contraption." You want them to think of it like a static photo on the wall that is changed daily--then its a miracle.
For most people, DON'T buy this. But for that lonely, isolated, elderly person of suitable temperment, it might be a "gift from heaven."
