Buyer's feedback: - * Nice try, but not well executed ...
This is a classic example of a product that should have been turned over to Apple to make it integrate well.
The manual is poor. For example, there is no explanation of how to actually navigate to the pictures on your camera. With an SD card in the camera, the HDTV dock initially displays Zero Pictures and Zero Videos. We thought the dock or the camera must be defective, because the Kodak printer dock can access the photos immediately. A call to tech support revealed that you have to go down about 3 or 4 folder levels to get to the actual pictures.
Picture display on my 720P LCD was generally good. Videos had an annoying green line at one edge.
The remote operates the device so slowly that the wait for a new picture to show on the screen is agonizing. Slide show mode was ok.
The buttons on the remote are confusing. Sometimes we had to shut off the HDTV dock just to make it go back to the main menu.
The remote also caused our Olevia LCD to turn off, so I had to put black electrical tape over the Olevia "remote pickup" plastic to keep the Kodak remote from turning it off.
The remote had to be carefully aimed at the dock or it wouldn't work at all.
The dock, like all Kodak docks, needs the "insert adapter" that comes with the camera. But it you have two docks, such as a printer dock and the HDTV dock, you're out of luck, because Kodak supplies only one insert, with the camera. Four calls to Kodak didn't fix the problem, until finally the parts department proposed to charge me for an extra dock insert. And this despite the fact that presales at Kodak said they'd simply send an additional insert for free when I supplied the serial number of the camera. Hint to the wise: just claim the insert is missing, and after two calls, one to parts to get the part number, and one to sales, you'll have your insert. So much for the "one call, and we fix your issue" customer service ethic.
The HDTV dock is compatible with some Kodak printer docks, so you can print what you see on the TV screen. But in the standard Kodak design way of not thinking everything out, the printers have only one USB port, so you have to do a cable swap if your dock is already connected to a PC.
The HDTV dock is a brand new product, but is missing, you guessed it, an HDMI port. Oops.
Ultimately we decided the hassle of the HDTV dock wasn't worth the result.
Come on, Kodak, you can do much better than this! If "Easy" is the marketing tag, this product doesn't fit.

Buyer's feedback: - Warning!
This dock requires HDTV, at minimum 720P resolution. It does not work on regular TV.

Like all other Kodak docks, it requires the custom camera insert included with your camera. If you have more than one dock, contact Kodak about getting extras. Using the dock without the adapter plate can cause damage to your camera, the dock, or both.

It does not connect to a PC. You need a different dock, printer dock, or a memory card reader for that.

Check camera compatibility before use.
It is not compatible with CX, DX, or and most LS, model cameras at all.
Some supported cameras DO NOT output in HD quality for picture or video.
It will not play video at all from many models of camera, even when you use the memory card directly in the dock.

The product strikes me as something Kodak stopped in the middle of development. It will not save many users from needing multiple memory cards or a laptop while traveling. The fact it only works with an HDTV makes it fairly useless for travel anyway unless you manage to find a hotel that has the required TV and allows you to mess with it.

Buyer's feedback: - * HD Dock ...
This is a must have for those of you that entertain at your house and own a HD TV! Amaze your friends and family with the clarity. Amaze yourself with the ability to alter photos only with a remote. Display is in 720i a consideration for some, versus 1080i full HD. The ability to charge your camera rapidly is a plus < 3 hours is normal,in comparison to damage from lower quality chargers overcharging etc. Go with quality, Kodak. Charge and display, bottom line a GREAT buy.

Buyer's feedback: - Fun gadget- would recommend
I was pleased with this product which worked well with my Kodak V series camera. The video displays pictures in full 1080i in beautiful color. The unit performs well to display pictures and play video. The slideshow function is great for parties! The pictures and video display almost instantaneously using my Kodak 2GB memory card. The memory reader on the side is useful- I was able to insert the memory card from another brand camera and use this dock to display those pictures as well. The USB port on the side also worked well to display pictures from a USB flash drive.

I wish the unit would connect directly to my computer to allow me to upload pictures without using the clunky USB cable which came with my camera.

The unit does not expand video images to the full size of the screen, so when viewed on a 1080i television (in 1080i mode), the 720p video (maximum resolution for my camera) appears really small, and the standard definition video appears tiny. You can reduce resolution of the unit to 720p and the video then appears full screen- but then pictures don't appear as clear.

I found myself taking this unit to other people's homes for parties- but watch out- if the unit is set to 1080i, you cannot change resolution to 720p because you cannot see the on-screen menu and the remote does not have a video resolution button.

Wish the unit had HDMI, but can't complain- this unit is great for the price!

Buyer's feedback: - * Life just got a little bit easier ...
This dock is an attractive and very functional product. Makes viewing pics and video clips a snap. Very easy to set up and use and serves as a battery charger as well. Fits right in with my entertainment center.
