Sharp DV-L70U 7" Portable DVD Player
Happy business traveler
I have just recently purchased the Sharp DV-L70U Portable DVD Player from Amazon.<br />My line of work requires me to travel frequently, and even though I am lucky to be able to fly business class, it sure is a hassle watching movies.  Due to the frequency of travel, I pretty much have seen all what the airlines have to offer several times over. Besides, since airline movies run continuously, one better stays in its seat while watching.  Any bathroom break might make you miss the important scene you have been waiting for.  I also like to mention, that many of the on-board monitors are in such bad shape, that watching a movie becomes more a guessing game than an enjoyable event.<br />Thanks to my new portable DVD, this is now a thing of the past.  The Sharp DV-L70U is compact and the 7 inch screen surprises with outstanding picture quality.  It is easy to use and provides, combined with a good set of Noise Reduction Headphones, a place of escape and tranquility even in the most crowded and noisy places.<br />Thumps up to:  Great picture, good sound through earphones and speakers, compact size, ability to play DVD and Music CD's, high quality product<br />Thumps down to:  Relative short battery life (just over 3 hours), limited control panel on unit (many options are only accessible via remote control).<br />In summary, after comparing the sharp to all the other products currently available, I feel that the DV-L70U is the best player on the market today.<br />I also recommend the Boostaro head phone amplifier, that allows up to three head phones to be connected to the player, and boost 40% more power to the head phones.  Combined with a membership at Netflix.com my airline flights are now movie hassle free, and even the dreaded delays are now more easily to deal with.
