Panasonic DVD-LX9 9-Inch Portable DVD Player
A product finally worth it's price!
I owned a Panasonic DVD-LA95 Portable DVD Player and was very happy with it, with the exception of the screen resolution (432x234 DPI).  I've passed it along to a family member.  There were times when it was like watching a movie through a wire mesh screen.  Needless to say, I monitored the internet for the next update.  The Panasonic DVD-LX9 Portable DVD Player has a screen resolution of 800x480.  The display on this model is EXCELLENT... after minor adjustments of the default settings.  DVD movies displayed on this model are comparable to the progressive scan picture on a HDTV.  Movies are now a joy to watch.  The built-in progressive scan feature of this model is only available at the component video output terminal on the multi cradle/docking station.  The optional battery pack (CGP-H501) used with the DVD-LA95 also works with the DVD-LX9.  The DVD-LX9 remote control includes the ability to adjust the player's built-in speaker volume.  A definite plus.  The multi cradle/docking station makes it more practical to use the DVD-LX9 with a television at home while also ensuring that it is quickly available for unexpected road trips and/or travel... no wires to disconnect and wrap-up to take along.  The DVD-LX9 has numerious features and capabilities that I will not address.  The main purpose of the DVD-LX9 is to watch movies on the go, utilizing the built-in display... and it does a very good job at that and has an excellant display.  I highly recommend this unit for home and mobile use.
