Panasonic DVD-LV50 5-Inch Portable DVD Player
Very well designed and thought out product
This unit was designed with the traveller in mind.  Here are some of the excellent features I've observed:<BR>1) LCD display can swivel out forward and lean almost flat against the unit - great for cramped viewing quarters like economy class on an airplane.<BR>2) Can simulate Dolby Digital and DTS effects in your regular headphones.  The effect is breathtaking - it's like having a surround sound home theater in your headphones.  Action movies never sounded so good.<BR>3) Comes with battery model CGR-H603 which lasted for 2 hours and 26 minutes in my test with the LCD set to factory default brightness and the audio level set to 6 (very loud).  You can reduce the brightness to increase the battery life.<BR>4) An optional extended life battery is available (CGR-H601) which in the same test lasted for a whopping 4 hours and 30 minutes.  That's a combined 7 hours of battery life - great for those longer flights.<BR>5) When the battery dies in the middle of a movie, simply pop in another charged battery and the player will automatically continue the movie from the point where the first battery died.  Very convenient.<BR>6) Lightweight!  This unit is very light and portable.<BR>7) The 5 inch screen is very easy to watch.  The size is not a limiting factor as you quickly get lost in the movie and even forget you're viewing a small screen.<BR>8) This player supports 16:9 letterbox (widescreen) and 4:3 boxed modes.<BR>9) Comes with a full featured remote control.<BR>10) This unit can be hooked up to a TV or home theater receiver with the included RCA/Composite cable.<BR>11) Options include car lighter adapter, cassette adapter, optical cables and more.<br />Overall, this is the best portable DVD player I have ever been exposed to.  It's quality built and small enough for serious travel.   ....
