  1. Worked great for almost 3 years!

    9 November 2011 See Product at Amazon ($124.88)

    bought it for my then 2 year old. It held up well, and lasted almost 3 years! It's been dropped numerous times, and never broke. It would work now, but we can't get it to charge, there's something wrong with the connection. I'm just glad it lasted this long! Read more or see product

    I took my family on a road trip and this player performed admirably! The picture was excellent and the sound was more than adequate for my kids. The battery lasted through two movies and still had some juice left in it. Read more

    After doing a few days of research and compairisons, it was obvious that for a portable dvd player, Sony has as close to perfection as you can get, but they need to make a car mounting clamshell and newegg needs to list the 930 model. Read more
