You may recall that haplesseStarling picture skeleton we tested last yearat this meter , where variation 1.0 had a Wi - Fi radio receiver that did n’t work for diddly squatty . Version 2.0 did n’t fare much better with its screen that was so tough it was hardly fair to middling . Well , we ’re here to tell you that eStarling has now busted out variation 3.0 , and this one works .

• Setup is relatively simple , and requires a download of a constellation software . All went smoothly when Wi - Fi reception was possible .
• Its Wi - Fi receiver still is n’t strong enough . Even though it could pick up our powerful Wi - Fi meshing in some areas of our Midwest Test Facility , it could n’t in others , even when sitting in locations where other Wi - Fi devices were able to receive the signaling with ease .
• It encounter photos via an electronic mail speech , which is a real recoil . It wreak , too , and the picture look especially good in the eStarling ’s 800×600 presentation . It claims to be the only picture frame to which you’re able to immediately email photograph , no enrollment expect . Go forward , surprise us with your best exposure — netmail them to tempamatica AT seeframe.com .
• The eStarling also receives RSS feeds from Flickr , Picasa , AOL , Smugmug , Photobucket or any other RSS feed . That also works quite well .
• The 8″ anatomy looks pretty chicness . It has a shiny black finishing , although there was an irritating piece of lint press between its unclouded plastic front and the LCD display on our demo whole .
• We like the way the form ’s display has a 4×3 scene ratio , which fits most of the pic we take around here . No black bars on the top or bottom , or on the English , either . overnice .
• At $ 249.95 , it ’s more expensive than most 8 - inch image frames , but with its Wi - Fi capabilities , electronic mail accessibility and crisp resolution , it ’s worth it . [ eStarling ]
