I got this one rather than the V1000 because, as the "fancier" model, it would hopefully have the best possible display. This was my goal, to get the frame with the best possible display, as I'm into photography and that's important to me. If you're into using Photoshop and Lightroom and color-managed workflow and displays, you can be confident that this frame is . . .uh . .. AWESOME! Even though you can't profile it like you would a monitor, I was VERY pleasantly surprised with it's out-of-the-box display characteristics. Like others have commented re the other Sony models, the color balance is just a tiny bit cool, but the resolution is stunning, the contrast is stunning, the blacks are black and the whites are white. Just remember to turn off the "auto-fix-your-image" settings if you've finessed your image already and want it displayed accurately, without any "improvements."
I haven't run into the "baseline jpgs only" problem yet, which means, apparently, that Lightroom outputs baseline jpgs. So if you're going to export pics from Lightroom to your card for the frame, you don't have to worry about it, they'll work.
I was really blown away by the screen quality, actually, because this is my first digital frame; the "glowing LCD" factor makes this about 20x nicer to set on my desk at work and display pictures than any print, no matter how nicely printed and lit.
The frame's features are adequate for what I want (simple slideshow going all day on my desk). The only complaint I have isthat there is no slide duration between 5 minutes and 30 minutes . . . (15 would have been nice).
