5.0 out of 5 stars Toshiba SD-P1900 9 Inch Portable DVD Player, April 10, 2007

I purchased this unit for my wife to help her uneasiness with flying. She has really enjoyed all of the features on the player, but wished that the volume level were higher. Even using Bose noise canceling over-the-ear headphones, she found it sometimes difficult to hear over airplane engine noise. The image quality is great. Very stylish design conveys its high quality level - definitely not a cheap "disposable" unit. The glossy black case, however, tends to show fingerprints pretty easily.

This was a birthday present for me but really for the whole family. Things I like about it: dual headphone jacks (for those of us with two kids) who want to hear glorious silence from the back seat on long hauls. It comes with the car charger, and RCA/AV output cable. We have a minivan that's a few years old with a built-in VCR and this AV output cable lets us plug into our built-in unit and playback through our existing monitor, meaning we can stash the DVD player anywhere out of the way in the van. When you do want to use the display, it's a nice large 9" display as portables go. So you can easily watch a movie anywhere, including in bed. The battery life is great (rated at 5 hrs.) enough for 2 movies without any external power supply. And it plays a wide variety of formats, including DVD, CD, MP3, and WMA. Based on competing models, with comparable screens, I expected it to be over $200. So I was pleasantly surprised by the $179.99 price tag. Last but not least, it's a Toshiba. I have a standard definition Flat tube Toshiba TV and a Toshiba VCR and they've both performed very well. So I am confident that this DVD player will be with us and performing well for many years to come.

I bought the Toshiba SD-P1900 9" Portable DVD Player for my 3 year old daughter who loves "Dora the Explorer" and it's been a great success on long trips.

On the plus side, it's sleek and black and the 9" display is nice and clear. It's bright enough to be seen in sunlight and comes with a handy remote control. I especially love the fact that it can play MP3 and DivX formats, both of which I use widely. Also, the dual headphone jacks and video outputs were great and allow me to hookup the player to my TV (haven't done it yet). The battery life was sufficient but it didn't matter - thanks to the ready car and AC adapters available with the unit.

The only negative things about this player - 1> the outer casing is too polished and highly prone to finger prints (be especially careful when using in the unit in your car as your hands tend to be dirtier) 2> the lack of a built in carry-use-bag - you need to buy that separately (costs about $20 at Walmart) and 3> the remote has too many buttons and is a bit cluttered.

You will agree with me that the three cons are just minor annoyances and that is why this player is a great buy for your money.
