DVDs: April 2006 Archives
About five years ago, I payed $800 for a portable DVD player so my kids could watch cartoons when we took long trips. After many drops on the floor, the player is in bad shape and barely works.
Today I use my PowerBook (and Video iPod) to watch videos, but I am reluctant to let my astonishingly destructive three-year-old daughter use either, especially unsupervised. So I looked around online and found this 3.5 inch kid-friendly portable DVD from Coby for about $100. It's a big hit. She loves to grip its sides and kick back with a Dora the Explorer DVD.
It comes with a nice case, kid sized headphones, an AC adapter to recharge the batteries, and a cigarette lighter adapter. $107.31 on Amazon
