Panasonic DVD-LX8 9-Inch LCD Portable DVD Player
Outstanding buy for the price
I researched portable DVD players for some time and found that Panasonic had the best products. I finally settled on this model after trying out three (the LA-95, the LX-9, and the LX-8) in a store. The LX-8 has not disappointed. We have used it on four road trips throughout Europe with NO problems. My daughter even dropped it off her lap and it did not miss a beat. The ability of the screen to move in any vertical direction (including flat) is a hugh bonus. It bascially eliminates any glare on the screen.     The only minus I would say would be the life of the battery. It lasts about 2 hours and 20 minutes on a full charge. We had to get a car adapter so that it could be played longer on trips.     Another benefit if you are planning to use the player overseas is that it takes 110-240 Volts and 50-60 Hz so that you can charge it over in Europe using the provided power cord.      I would highly recommend this player to anyone. It certainly is worth the price.        Brad
