Guys,
Looking to get a DVD player for the kids for our upcoming Cape trip..
Has anyone had any experience with these ones?? > Here....
I'm not looking for the ones with the game capability - I figure that's just more cables, controllers etc (and they have a Gameboy each anyway)
Any other info/advice appreciated

Something else to consider......
Our DVD player sends the audio to a FM transmitter that is then picked up by the car stereo. A great idea except that then we have to listen to the movie as
well.... and you can't have it on low volume.... the kids need to hear it!
So we invested in a pair of headphones with built in FM receiver.... the kids can have the sound of the DVD at whatever volume they want and we get to listen to each other or the car stereo or UHF chatter............
Cheers
Brian

Ivan,
This is the one I got a few month ego and kids love it:
LINK
It is 8.4" TFT screen with is strap on to the back
seat, it plays DVDs, VCD, MP3s,
CD, DivX Movies on CD/DVD, comes with 2 game controllers and 300 atari style
games, FM trasmitter...
There is also another model (which I got) which also includes TV tuner and
USB port - to which you can connect USB drive/memory stick with Movies -
I even connected external 160GB hard drive and could watch movies of it...
I would say get one with TV tuner and one without The cost for 2 should be around
$500...
BTW how many cars going to Cape? Cause I am bored down here :)
