Initial DVD-9510 Portable DVD Player with 4-Inch Screen
Perfect at this price
I bought this elsewhere, before it was available from Amazon...There was a favorable MSNBC review that helped me feel confident in the quality, and I agree with the review. This is an excellent product and at a surprisingly affordable price.<br />The battery lasts long enough to watch a longer-than-average movie, and doesn't take too long to charge up. It's great that they include the car adaptor and AC adaptor as well -- wonderful for the car.<br />The screen is fairly low resolution and small, but plenty viewable. It's not the best screen in the world but it works fine and again, it's at such a low cost that I didn't mind. Plus, you can always use the included! cables to plug the machine into a spare TV -- I justified this purchase as a second DVD player as well as a fun toy for trips, since I plug it into my small upstairs TV, where it works perfectly.<br />The remote is useful, and small enough to port around if you get a bag for this machine. I wish it had volume control and/or power control on it, but it's not a major problem.<br />All in all an excellent product for the price. Even if I could afford an $800 portable DVD player, I'm not sure I'd bother. A better screen would be welcome, but this one is fine for now.<br />Get the cheap Koss head-band-less earphones as a companion.
