ok:
I love this DVD player! The picture and color are great, but I did not enjoy it for long. It worked for about a week. I had a lot of trouble when I first received it with the battery. The battery pack would not hold a charge. I wasn't happy with the customer service at Amazon. The thirty day warranty starts when you place the order. I did not receive it for 2 weeks so when I realized the battery wasn't holding a charge....Amazon would NOT help me. I really wanted the dvd player for a LONG road trip with the... more info
Pro's & Con's:
Pro's:
The picture is good and can be formated as to the aspect ratio.
The sound is louder than just about any laptop and is loud enough to be used in a car without headphones (if not competeing with the stero).
Con's:
The software is too old to read a SD-HC card (standard SD card is fine).
I haven't found an adaquate case for the player yet. It needs a case the size of a small laptop computer to hold this large player, AC adaptor, cables, DVD's ,and seat straps.

Battery Issues:
I have had this DVD player for about 13 months and have had no issues until the battery completely stopped charging. The moment I pull out the power cord, the DVD player completely stops. This pretty much ruins the purpose of having a portable DVD player. I called Toshiba and was told tht I would have to pay for an repairs. This battery issue seems to be a common problem with this player. If you get one without this issue, it's a pretty good player.
Only Lasted 12 months:
Just so you know, this thing only lasted 12 months before the rechargable battery stopped recharging. The unit still works if plugged into an electric outlet or car adapter, but the battery won't hold a charge. If you are looking for quality, look elsewhere - it seems like several other reviewers have had problems with this unit.
