Sony DVP-FX820 8-Inch Portable DVD Player, Black

Excellent portable DVD player. Ideal for the kids when taking a long automobile trip.

Compact design and exceptional screen quality. The clamshell design flips flat like a tablet PC and the DVD controls are conveniently located even when flat. Durability so far is good. Battery life is better than other units I have owned, but not six hours.

PROS: Excellent image; Battery life enough to watch 2 movies (2 hours each); Different positions for screen; remote control easy to use.

CONS: A little bit bulky; heavy; Sony does not offer an accessory to hold in the back of the car (at least I haven't found it)

OVERALL: Excellent quality an easy to use for a fair price... I recommend it!!!

I think the other reviewers have done a great job reviewing the product. I just want to add the best case for this DVD player is the Case Logic PDVK-9. The 10-inch version is slightly bigger but the 9-inch fit perfectly. Probably too fit to plug in the power connector. For me, I was just looking for something as fit as possbile. With this case, you can have the player fully extended (open up 180 degrees) or folded with the LCD facing out (flip open), which are the features I looked for in a case.

This is a nice dvd for traveling. I only wish they make it so you need not use both hands to open. Other than that, i have no complaints.
