Sony DVP-FX701 7-Inch LCD Portable DVD Player
That "disc error" thing...
The screen is nice, but no where near as sharp as what you would find on the new X-brite VAIO's.  I started receiving a \\"disc error\\" on all of my DVDs (which had previously worked with no problems) after six months of use.  Unit was not overly used, just for the occassional weekend trip.  The odd thing is that the unit still plays JPEG's & MP3's with not problems.  Since this was a gift, I had no additional warranties purchased.  After calling Sony support, I had a choice of getting an exchange at $33 or repair at $87.  Sony support was helpful, but their automated voice robot \\"Max\\" is annoying. <br />I also have a Phillips DVD player that I bought in 1997 which has never given me a problem - but it's not a portable.  I own other Sony products and really enjoy them. I'm disappointed in this product and hope my replacement won't let me down.  Sony stuff is nice, but you may be better off with a lower cost model should anything go wrong.
