5.0 out of 5 stars Upgrade from old one, October 22, 2004

This review is from: VideoNow Color Personal Video Player (Toy)

I have purchased the old black and white one for my 2 daughters and they loved it, I could take them places with me like to get me hair or nails done and they would sit there and just watch it quietly until I was finished. I am so glad that they came out with the color kind now, I will be purchasing them one next month I know I will have to start their Video Now CD collection over (they have over 15 CD's from the older one) but hey, it beats spending the money to get a T.V installed in the Explorer, they can each watch what they want to watch. I can't wait to surprise them with the color Video Now. As long as they keep make them, I will keep upgrading

4.0 out of 5 stars Great gift, November 11, 2004

This review is from: VideoNow Color Personal Video Player (Toy)

I have had a black and white video now for a year now and I love it. I know it seems like it is a little expensive but it is like a t.v on the go. I am young and i love videonow. I can't wait to buy a videonow color. Even just buying one video for it is good because kids can watch it over and over again. It is good for when you are with your mom or dad and they are doing boring errands you can quietly sit there and watch them. I mean even you can get 3 pvds for under $20.00 and watch it over and over again. I advise for anyone from the ages of 6-13 to buy this videonow. It's great for a Christmas gift too and it's just in time for the holidays!

I brought this toy for my son and after plugging in the batteries after 5 minutes guess what? A black screen. Sound but not picture.

I contacted HASBRO and hopefully they will credit me or fix it or something. Wish me Luck!!
