Cons Not true widescreen, built-in sound is weak
Recommended it? Yes

The Initial 1731 portable DVD player is one of the best deals you can find for a 7-inch widescreen model. I shopped around online and in real stores and ended up finding the best deal on this thing at Amazon. Their price has gone back up a little bit and now some stores, such as Circuit City, are...

Pros Cheap and small size.
Cons Does not work correctly.
Recommended it? No

I purchased this DVD yesterday and will be returning it to the store today. It would not read my DVD+R or my DVD+RWs at all. It also would not correctly display the main menu for a commercial DVD that we own making it impossible to watch any of it except for one out of three movies on the DVD... Read full review »
