RCA RC5400P Portable DVD Player
Versatile player
I chose the RCA model over the more popular models (Panasonic, Aiwa, Toshiba, etc) because I enjoyed the overall value of this device. First, it had a very clear screen that is viewable from all angles which means you don't have to keep adjusting your screen angle every 5 minutes during fluctuating sunlight (on cross-country flights) Secondly, the ability to play CD and CD-R's benefit my [mp3]-compressioned off-spring.   The other major selling point was with which the battery back connected with the player.  It doesn't hang on via a cord but attatches perfectly on the back which still remains in size smaller than a hardcover book. Obvious detractions:  Lack of Battery longevity, however buying a backup pack will off-set this...Closing discs in player are not as spring loaded as I wished, meaning that it takes a couple seconds more to insert cd/dvd sometimes. Overall very pleased with the value and performance of this product... Personally can't fathom paying $200-400 more for minor improvements.
