    Technologies from yesterday from tomorrow

    The product looks very cheap and came out of the box with a blemish. The screen attracts dust and dirt like a magnet, and even if you breathe on it, it scratches. Rotating the screen just a little makes it difficult to see things and the quality sucks unless you're looking directly at the screen. The player cannot recognize SDHC cards, so the largest card that can be inserted is a 2GB card. This fits into an entire movie (sarcastically written), so what's the point of an SD card slot. And if…

    For now. in portable DVD players

    I received my iLuv yesterday. I immediately plugged it in to charge the battery. Like most people I know, I used it first and then read the directions. This puppy is a dream. Movies played flawlessly on my 160GB iPod classic. The tone is the only downside of the ointment. I connected it to the Bose portable iPod dock. Hence the sound is amazing. This is truly a marriage made in heaven. The screen is pretty big. I connected and ordered a screensaver from iLuv. This is an inexpensive must have. I

    OTHER FAILURES ITEM

    While this product has some great advantages while also having many disadvantages, it seems that its design and construction somehow carried over into production. There is a NEW product (from other companies), they all want to be the first to use the new technology (e.g. IPHONE). Let's start PROS1 - it has the biggest screen of any DVD player 9"2 - it has a good remote control (most don't have one)3 - it accepts and plays movies from IPOD/IPHONE4 - it receives and plays movies from both USB…

    Pros
    • Rugged Design
    Cons
    • Big and Chunky

    Great device! suitable for portable AV

    I've been following this product closely since it was announced at CES earlier this year and was fortunate to release one of the first batches. Here's a quick rundown of some of the pros and cons of this product. I have previously purchased a Philips portable DVD/iPod player DCP850/37 and have been very happy with it. Although the screen was only 7 inches, it was relatively portable, light enough and easy to use. Unfortunately it doesn't support the later generation 160GB iPod classic which I…

    Pros
    • great price
    Cons
    • poorly thought out

    I love this item!

    I LOVE this item! Since upgrading to the latest iPod touch, I've been looking for a new docking system that is portable, easy to use and will fit all of my iPods. I have one for my classic but the latest iPod touch doesn't fit so I've searched for many months, read reviews etc. This one definitely fits my needs. Its advantages are that it is portable, supports the latest iPod touch and has a crystal clear screen. I bought a screen protector and haven't had the issues others have complained…

    Pros
    • Compatibility: iPod nano 3G, 4G, 5G; iPod classic 4G, 5G, 5.5G, 6G; iPod touch 1G, 2G; iPhone 1G, 3G, 3Gs (in airplane mode)
    Cons
    • Crumpled packaging

Let's start with PROS1 - it has the biggest screen of any DVD player 9"2 - it has a good remote control (most don't have one)3 - it accepts and plays movies from IPOD/iPhone4
