Panasonic DVD-L50 Portable DVD Player
Now Home Theatre is Anywhere I am
Received this great toy recently, and it was love at first sight.  The picture was sharper than expected, and the controls are easy to use either on the player or via the diminutive remote (which is not really necessary  for most use).  It has a solid, well-made feel about it, even though it is  light and easy to carry.  The sound is ok through the speakers, and quite  good through a headset (which will be most of my use).  While the bottom  does get warm, placed on a magazine or tablecloth, there is no problem.   For me, this player finally puts DVD clearly above laserdisc.  Up to now,  DVD was only marginally better than laser in most respects and behind in  some, but the portability of this player is something a laserdisc player  could never attain.  The DVD L-50 does for video what the Walkman did for  music.
