Nice but battery does not last long     On: 2007-11-20

Battery only lasted about 45 minutes the first time and second times I fully charged it. I read in the manual that at first you dont get the full 2 hrs advertised but it seems like 45 minutes is ridiculously low. Other than that, I like how it looks, how heavy it is and all the features. My only problem is how long it sustains a charge, not much by my initial estimations.

I have been so pleasently surprised by this item. Not only is it beautiful, but it works so well. It was a gift for my father, who has to sit through 4 hours of dialysis 3 times a week. This DVD Player has made his treatments bearable.
Thank you ever so much!

I am enjoying it very much. It is everything I had hoped for.
not good these are refurbished units     On: 2006-06-26

It has a great picture and good sound I really liked it, but I should have had a clue. Stamped on the front of the manual it says products sold as is. It lasted for about a month and that was that. Ill try and contact Amazon to see if I can get it repaired. I should have know better. Amazon should have posted that they are AS IS!

Not bad, but where's my warranty?     On: 2006-05-15

My kids agree that this dvd player performs well. My only two complaints so far in the two days I have used it are:

1) The manual is stamped NO WARRANTY - AS IS. I believe it is because the company is out of business. However it doesnt leave a warm feeling in your tummy when you see that. I checked the box before opening it, and it appeared, for all intents and purposes to be brand new with no scratches, sealed plastics on everything, etc.

2) The old laptops had a problem with viewing angles - a little to the side and you could not see anything.....
This has it to a lesser degree. A little to the side and you dont get the entire glory of the picture. The colors seem off and the features are a bit untinted. This is a biggie to me, as we bought it for use on long car trips so that all the kids in the second and third row of the minivan can see the screen. The kids have not complained though.

Bear in mind - a 10 inch widescreen is not a ten inch monitor. Its a rectangle that only goes up vertically 5 inches. I didnt realize that before purchasing. Beware before you purchase.

I bought an FM transmitter to play the sound through the vans sound system, because the one that goes into the tape player makes a lot of pop and hiss. Great buy for the money. Next cheapest at a decent price is the Cyberhome 1010a. Good luck.
this is an excellent dvd portable that is availble in pearl color or black.The unit has a 10.2 inch screen.

This is an excellent dvd widescreen portable.It is avaible in pearl or black...The unit works with its supplied battery..You get about 3 hours of use on one charge...The unit also comes with an ac adapter/charger...A car adapter is included,with this package...Mine was skip free,with a good picture and sound,with its built in little speakers...You can feed your stereo and tv from this portable for better performace...The unit states there is no skip protection,a consideration for road trips...My unit did not skip under these conditions...Please note most portable dvd players,are not as rugged as they should be...You cannot charge and watch a dvd at the same time...The unit will work off ac power...If you want to charge the battery,while on ac,you would need,a second a/c adapter...I hope my review was helpful to you...Please note when purchasing,please buy from a retailer with a good refund/exchange policy of at least 30 days...Thank you stewart L...Update 2/16/06...Amw is out of business..They dont answer their phones,and this item is being sold as is by most retailers,despite listing this item as new..My units work well,but like many others,you will find you cannot get the set fixed for free...It is common for some retailers to sell repacked refurbished,and factory B,and rejects as new...Always check your purchases carfully.. look for extra lables or repair tags,that will show your item might not be new...I hope my update was helpful,for all concerned..
