I use it for workout DVD's and travel as well as for pleasure.
I like having the remote with this DVD player. I use it for workout DVD's so it is closer to me where I need it to be. I use it for meditation DVD's in a quiet place without other distractions. It's a great little machine with a big screen and a remote.
Be wary: low-resolution LCD (400x240)
I purchased this unit from Fry's for 149.99, and will be returning it in the morning. The manufacturer's specifications indicate it has Component (YPbPr) progressive output, but does not include the necessary cable to make that connection possible.
Most horribly, the LCD is specified as having 800x480 resolution, which is a 15:9 widescreen aspect ratio, but clearly, at a casual glance, it is not an 800x480 resolution LCD. I painstakingly measured the vertical resolution using a magnifying glass and ruler as 240 pixels high. This explains the crummy video image: it's only a 400x240 pixel screen. At 9 inches that's just horribly blocky. My unit also had one dead pixel in a prominent location near the center of the screen.
