Toshiba SD-P1850 Portable DVD Player with 8-Inch Widescreen LCD
Good, basic, inexpensive player
I noticed that there wasn't a lot of reviews for this player on Amazon, so I thought I'd add my thoughts as I just purchased the P1850.  (Though it looks like its about to be discontinued - doh) <br /> <br />First the good points;  the price is right.  I paid the Amazon price of $184 and I must say that for the price its a solid player with a fairly large 8\\" screen.  The memory card slot for photos is a nice addition if you can use it.  Unfortunately for me my camera uses Compact Flash, so I would have appreciated that option with the others.  And lastly, the speakers have obviously been improved.  Many people have complained about not being able to hear anything on other players.  These speakers can pump out a fair amount of sound. <br /> <br />Now the not so good; The screen resolution leaves a bit to be desired.  It's not terrible, but at close range (say airline tray distance) its quite easy to see the square pixels.  Plus it tends to be brighter at the bottom than the top.  Viewing angle also leaves a lot to be desired; you basically have to be looking dead on.  And lastly, though the sound can get to a larger volume, the sound is very tinny with almost no bass.  Of course you can try to adjust most of these settings, but it doesn't help much. <br /> <br />Overall, it isn't a bad player for the price.  It's made of plastic and feels slightly cheap, but not nearly as bad as some.  I would recommend it if you are looking for a good basic inexpensive player for the occasional trip.
