Amazon.com Review

Sporting its own CompactFlash and SmartMedia slots, the Kodak Personal Picture Maker 200 doesn't require a PC to print good color photos. Easy one-button operation permits previewing, sizing, and cropping on the built-in LCD, and Kodak's Color Rich Technology color-balances the results.

To set up the printer, we plugged in the power supply, opened the front cover, and inserted the color and photo ink cartridges. (The Picture Maker comes with three ink cartridges--color, black, and photo--but only two are used at a time. For normal printing, use color and black; for photo printing, use color and photo.) Next, we loaded Kodak premium glossy photo paper (starter pack included) and followed the LCD menus to print a test sheet and align the print heads.

The Picture Maker 200 is marketed as printing in three easy steps--take the picture, insert the SmartMedia or CompactFlash card, and print--and that's how we tested it. (If you plan to use the Picture Maker 200 with a PC, you'll need to connect the printer cable and load the Kodak driver software.) We inserted a 16 MB CompactFlash card loaded with 20 photos, followed the LCD menus to select a favorite shot and to print using best quality, pressed the print button, and waited. We waited over 20 minutes as our first 8-by-10-inch photo slowly emerged. We printed other photos using lower quality settings and obtained faster (but still remarkably slow) results.

The visible output was good for an inexpensive printer. Held at arm's length, the prints could have been mistaken for traditional photographs (thanks in part to Kodak's exceptionally good photo paper). However, close examination revealed pixelation, grain, and imperfect register. Colors were warm and bright but not oversaturated. Prints were also dark, but this could be corrected in software.

With the Picture Maker 200, Kodak brings both ease and affordability to walk-up digital photo printing. If you don't require photo-lab-perfect results and can't afford a dye-sublimation printer, the Picture Maker 200 may be an ideal compromise. --Mike Brown

Pros:

Easy walk-up printing of digital photos
Easy to set up and use
Good print quality for the price

Cons:

Extremely slow performance
Lightweight construction
Separate photo ink cartridge

This phone is inferior. Used as a wall mount, you have to squat to read the caller ID info. Terrible feedback when using speakerphone with the volume passed half level. NO MUTE BUTTON! And...I can hear a radio station when using the handset. The 1 plus...no AC required.

Maybe it's just my bad luck, but . . ........2000-07-07

I received a GPX CD player (same model as this but older version) for Christmas. I used it pretty regularly for about a month (during which I was very happy with it) and then put it away for a while. The next time I used it, it wouldn't recognize any CD.

We returned it and received a new "updated" version which again worked for about a month. It has now been a month since I last used it and once again, it is not reading my CDs.

My advice? Don't try this one unless you enjoy being frustrated!

Great buy for the Price!.......2000-05-29

I bought my CD Player back in December, and it has not failed me yet! The car adapter waorks very well, and the unit itself offers okay sound. For the price of this item, you have to know that you aren't going to get "state of the art" anything - but the anti-skip feature has worked fine for me, the sound is fine and I utilize the "Hold" switch (which keeps the unit's buttons from being accidenatlly pressed) and the Bass Boost. The Bass Boost is pretty wimpy, although I must admit that I've never tried it with good-quality headphones, which might change the sound considerably. Speaking of headphones, my included pair did break about three months after I started using them. I simply replaced them with another cheap pair.

Complaints of short battery life can probably be attributed to the user leaving the anti-skip protection on for long periods of time. In my experience, this will drain the batteries faster than anything else, when using any CD player. If you need to use the batteries for an extended time, try to *not* use the Skip Protection, or else try to find a way to use one of included two adapters. Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase, although your mileage may vary.

In conclusion, I must say that if you are looking for top-quality sound and construction, look elsewhere; if you just need something to play your CDs in and you can't afford to spend a lot of cash, this one's for you.

Worthless.......2000-05-22

I've had this for less than a day, and am already tempted to chuck it out the window. The anti-skip feature apparently works by just randomly stopping the music altogether...ingenious.

This is just a piece of crap. Really, that about sums it up.

There's a better deal than this one........2000-03-10

I bought this because of the car kit and it was reasonable priced. But you get what you paid for. I found out that the skip protection doesn't even work. Also the sound quality, with headsets, really stinks! Also, I have to buy a lot of batteries. It's cheap so you get what you pay for but stay away from this thing! You can find a better deal.

A very good buy!.......1999-11-17

I was very impressed with this product, and the accompanying car kit was very welcome. There should be no qualms about the merit of this product other than three factors which I found quite significant, namely:

An EL backlight for the LCD display is absent. The Dynamic Bass Boost would seem to be lacking. The volume cannot be taken to extremely high levels.

Other than the above, the programming modes and the other features are well structured and physically laid out. On the whole, I would call this a very good value-for-money item.

Product Description

The D-Link DI-707 series is a Broadband Home and Small Business Gateway with seven switched Fast Ethernet ports. It allows multiple computers to share a cable or DSL Internet connection. It provides security as a firewall between a Local Network and the Internet. The DI-707 series is targeted at small businesses and home users. It allows up to 253 users to share a single Internet Connection while providing the safety and security of both port blocking and a natural firewall. Static address support, integrated DHCP, and device name support will allow it to connect to nearly any broadband provider, and at the same time simplify local area network settings. The DI-707 series provides two levels of security support. First, it masks local users' IP addresses from others on the Internet making it much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Secondly, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. Specific ports can be opened by the user to ensure that games and other Internet applications will run properly.

Customer Reviews:

Great....when working.......2006-03-13

This router has been nothing but frustration; I bought it because I thought the idea of two computers sharing a printer through one router was a great idea; and it is....a great idea that is. I have to reboot the router at least once a week, frequently not having access to the internet and/or printer. Frequently I get LAN errors; when I bypass the router everything works great. The reset button doesn't do anything that I am aware of; I mistakenly threw out the box so I think I am stuck with it.
When this router is working, everything is great; but when it isn't you can count on spending at least an hour getting everything set up again.
I am very disappointed; this is my first router/print server combo and I had high hopes of smooth sailing.

What do you expect?.......2005-12-26

ok, so the thing has all the features in the world except a programable firewall. Competition for the feature set (8ports, firewall, router, and print server) is NIL. Great feature set for home networkers (Hint to NETGEAR and LINKSYS.)
It would be very nice if they would make it so it lasts longer than 1 1/4 years. Yep, bought September of '04, replaced the super-cheap cHINESE transformer at about 6 months. Now totally dead at 15 months of age.
Sure buy a 12 month warranty and get the only one to last longer....... Solution I'm using: Buy 2 and keep one (after testing of course) for a spare since feature set is a killer, cHINESE quality appears to be somewhat sub-par for electronics made in this millenium.

UPDATE: January 2006
I'm baaaaack. Yes, bought a pair of them in December, did not even get 2 months out of the first. Back it goes. Amazing that they haven't quite picked up on a new term that has only been popular for about 60 years - "Quality CONTROL." I'm now shopping the other brands so I can pay more to them rather than keep monkeying around replacing these. It is fairly clear that someone is not trying to make a QUALITY image for themselves. Don't want to be crying - but forwarned consumers are now for-armed..........

Not the right device for Multifunction printers.......2004-06-19

Not much surprise here, it doesn't support any multifunction options, but it does what it's supposed to otherwise do.

I have returned this for a USB Server by Keyspan.

It allows ANY USB device to be shared on a network (as if it were plugged direclty into any PC).

See my Amazon review.

It is the ONLY answer to multifunction sharing.

No Firewall Administration Options as showed in DLink Page.......2003-09-26

I recently purchase this item, I found that there is no Firewall Administration Options in the menu as showed in the DLink Product Page Manual (Everything else is good). I'm talking with the Dlink support and have no solution. DLink support team says "There are no firewall options on this router. To open ports on these routers you will use vserver and applications. Thank you for networking with D-Link. "

Firewall support is not like like D-Link Advertises.......2003-09-24

All the features work well and are a breeze to setup, except one. This router does all the things you would expect it to in a very stable manner, except one. If you check the D-Link Web site for the manual of this exact router model. You will find some rather nice firewall features (My whole reason for getting this router actually). When you set up the router, you will find that there is no firewall button. It absolutely does not exist. The manual has an actual screen shot of the setup screen with a firewall button in plain view and it details how to use the firewall, but the product came with no such option. I am very disappointed, and feel very mislead.
