What I am not sure of after reading your review is why you bothered reviewing it if the alignment could not be set correctly. This would obviously affect focus and jpeg artifacts. I owned the previous generation device and yes the still-frame quality is not as good as a true camera but that's not the point, but it was nowhere as bad as you experienced, perhaps because mine were able to be aligned, which I did each time I used it. For me the primary reason for owning this device was the 3-D recording ability and the reason I bought a 3-D TV. I gifted mine to a friend and have missed it ever since.
