CyberHome CH-LDV 712 7-Inch Portable Progressive-Scan DVD Player , Silver
Great product - puts others in price range to shame
Firstly there is a lot of misinformation in some of the negative reviews. This DVD player plays EVERY format (-r, +r -r/w +r/w)). Just check out the expert reports on dvdrhelp.com.<BR>As far as the sound it is as good or better than $400 portables.<br />Someone else said it was not true widescreen. Lol, please. that person probably had a movie that had been letterboxed (widescreen with the top/bottom black bars as part of the video stream). People should understand terms before making comments.<br />In fact this is a widescreen whcih plays widescreen dvd's perfectly and pan/scan (3x4) with black bars on sides as expected with all widescreens.<br />Now that that debunking is finished to the positives: this unit has an exceptional side veiwing angle. this means if you put it on your center console of your vehicle it will be viewable and present a good picture to all three rear seats. The firmware is also among the most robust and feature rich of any portable, including those at twice the price.<br />All in all this is an exceptional player.
