Looking for a good portable dvd player

[hippie68]

Would like to get one for a graduation gift. Looking to spend anywhere from $150-$200. I have searched around but am just wondering if anyone owns one from that price range and their thoughts on it.

Not in the Other forum you aren't ;)

Do a search there are several threads about portable DVD players. I bought a Panasonic and have been very pleased with it. My advice is to stick with Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, or Toshiba. The off brands (Mintek, Polaroid, Cyberhome, etc.) have very mixed reviews some have good luck but a lot have bad luck.

For the record I picked up one of the Polaroids w/ the swivel screen (820T). It's been a nice little unit so far (regionless too which was the main reason I went for it :up: ) unfortunately at the time when I bought it last year it was $350 which is a bit out of your price range. You can check places like Amazon or Target to see what the current price is though, maybe it's dropped.
