Good storage (Charles Valenzuela, Austin, TX, 2008-07-20)

Good amount of storage and you can also watch video recorded in MP4 format. The screen resolution could be better but a good buy and reasonable quaality with a variety of storage card choices.

WARNING when buying Epson products (B. Humphrey, NYC, New York USA, 2008-04-18)

PURCHASE YOUR EPSON PRODUCT THROUGH AN AUTHORIZED DEALER OR FROM EPSON DIRECTLY.

This is not a review of this product, but rather a word to the wise... Two and half months after my purchase of an Epson 10000XL scanner through Amazon, it stopped working. Through the followup and tech support process I learned that, because I purchased through Amazon, the manufacturer nor the seller would honor the 1 year warranty. Epson's position is that Amazon is not an authorized seller and that they merely act as broker for what can often be re-furbished or second hand merchandise.

So, should your purchase break or malfunction, as mine did, you are out of luck with regard to warranty.

This lesson cost me $2400.00

Great for Storage, OK for viewing (Chad H. Hewitt, Minneapolis MN, 2008-04-10)

The device works great for storage of image files. Took it on a 10 day trip, and download 2K photo's and small video files without a hitch. Battery lasted the whole trip without a recharge. I was disappointed in the image quality, and the ease of deleting and sorting - basic file management. My hope was I could delete the so/so pictures on the trip, but the image quality wasn't good enought to make a decision.

Good, but not Great. (Reece, Salt Lake City, UT USA, 2007-12-03)

The best quality of this product is the 160GB size hard drive, double the 80GB Epson. The interface is very cluncky, (definitely not an apple product) but gets the job done. The screen was a couple of notches below our Canon SLR displays, but once again it gets the job done. The epson is superior in every way, price included, except the size capacity. And, on our recent photo assignment to Japan the 80GB Epson was just too small so we went with picture porter, and it got the job done. But when our next assignment takes us away for an extended period our hope is the Epson will have some increased capacity. If your going to be away from your computer for LESS than 80GB worth of images the Epson is still your best bet. But, if you need MORE than 80GB the Picture Porter is pretty... good.
