Panasonic DVD-L50 Portable DVD Player
Great toy to distract kids on a long trip
Endless hours of entertainment in the car/plane/whatever to keep little kids (too little to see the plane's movie screen) busy for at least  an hour at a time (buy headphones for the sake of your seatmates). Plus, DVDs  are much smaller and easier to travel with than the usual videos--which  they can't watch in transit. You can hook it up to any tv when you get to  your destination.
