The other day I was able to do an in-home test of this fancy new Blu-ray video system while at the apartment of a friend who just recently upgraded.  A few months ago, he bought himself a shiny new 46" Sony XBR HDTV and finally decided that his DVD collection and player weren't doing justice to his...

Cons Set up can be a little confusing, remote buttons cramped!
Recommended it? Yes

My son's last portable DVD player had lived it's years and finally gave out after a few spills from some juice and my son had been wanting a new, portable DVD player for some time.
