5.0 out of 5 stars Great Player Overall, May 31, 2007

If you want a player with a large screen, don't be surprised if the player is large. It's about two inches less deep and 2 inches less wide than a small laptop, and about the same thickness with the battery attached. It has a fantastic picture - very bright and amazing color and contrast - and an incredible battery life. To test the battery life, I played the same movie, with two headphones plugged in, at a sufficient volume level. The player lasted 7 full hours! I didn't buy it to read memory cards, but it's definitely a nice plus. It has full picture adjustments, including color, a great remote, a very nice on-screen display, a non-glare screen and a sharp look. Of course, the speakers are all but worthless, but that is what I have found on all other players I was looking at. Also, it will remember the last scene you were watching on the LAST FIVE DISCS. So you can turn off the player and not lose where you were. I am very happy with my purchase. I think you would be hard pressed to find anything similar that had the same quality and functionality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adventures in viewing, August 25, 2007

This review is from: Toshiba SD-P2900 10.2-Inch DivX Certified Portable DVD Player (Electronics)

I have progressed through several evolutions of portable DVD players. This unit provides the features that I have come to expect in quality DVD players. The most important feature: restart from shutdown while viewing a DVD it returns to the exact moment of the video where it was shutdown.
Controls are easy to use. It could use a digital volume control but the manual wheel control is quite serviceable. The card slot allows me to view my digital stills and videos from my camera. Quite a boon for reducing devices needed when travelling abroad. Battery life is also well rated, I have yet to run out of battery power while viewing multiple 1 hr episodes of my DVD series I watch while on commuting flights.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MINI TV!, November 15, 2007

Toshiba is the best in electronics! I have had 3 of their portable players. First one being SD 1400 7 inch screen, then SD 1850 8 inch screen & now the SD 2900. Each model is dependable & always gives the best picture. The 10.2 inch screen is like carrying around a tv rather than a portable device. It is the size of a laptop & will hold the stopped place on a disc when the machine is off. Battery lasts FOREVER! Went to Arizona (a 3 1/2 hour plane trip) & was able to use the battery in the airport as well as the plane without having to recharge once. A very good investment for dvd lovers.
