@Mike: Sorry for the delayed reply, it’s been a very busy month.

The Toshiba frames work well with the FrameAlbum service (Thanks Ian for the test unit!). However, there is a bit of geekery involved to get them working. Frames that used the FrameChannel service were ‘hard wired’ to connect to the FrameChannel servers. Since FrameChannel shutdown those servers are no longer operating. To work around this it is necessary to ‘fool’ your frame into thinking it is connecting to the FrameChannel servers. It involves manually setting the IP address configuration of your frame. You don’t have to write any programs or change your internet connection in any way; it is strictly on the frame itself.

I posted a blog entry about the issue here. It includes general info. on how to setup a frame to use the FrameAlbum service. It does not include specifics for the Toshiba frame. If after reading all this, and the blog post, you are still game to give it a go, drop me a comment here and I’ll write up a detailed description for you.
