PET 1002 Portable DVD Player.......2007-06-11

Knowing nothing about DVD's including what the initials stood for, I relied on an internet search and viewer reviewes of the product. I Personally shopped in-store to see and evaluate some of the products and, finally selected the PET 1002 DVD because it met most of my needs.

Service delivery was great, with the product delivered ahead of schedule. Quality of picture excellent. Operation noise miminal. DVD's speaker sound quality fair to good and, the loudest I could find on the market of those I selected to shop for. However, with a medium-priced set of headphones attached,the sound is excellent and the volumn dial acutally produced too much volumn at the DVD's dial half-way mark. First use test was on a plane ride from D/FW to LA and the DVD worked perfectly with a beautiful picture and wonderful sound. Overall, a good investment. I'm happy with it.

Nice little player...but noisy drive.......2007-06-01

I just received mine from J&R. Very fast shipping!
I look forward to using this on my flights this summer. I bought it so my toddler could watch some kid friendly stuff on the plane. I am normally against having my soon to be 2 year old watch more than 30 minutes of ANYTHING, but hey on a flight there is no playground.

I tried this with a DVD+RW and it worked, so I am pretty happy that it plays all formats. That is more important to me than the whole resume where it left off issue.

A good buy! I wouldn't get it from Etronicsland if they offered it. I bought the 8 inch screen; they sent me the 7 inch. I sent it back at MY expense. What a rip off!

5 June...the drive is noisy even after the DVD loads. I may call Customer support to get it fixed.

Great -- except for the battery design.......2007-05-18

Great picture and audio. Excellent battery life. BUT the way the battery attaches to the player is TERRIBLE. The player cannot sit flat with the battery attached. The battery pack seems like it will fall off if the player is not carefully handled.

Also, this is not the player to casually slip into your hand luggage for a flight. It is heavy.

Finally, if it's important to have a large screen, good image quality and sound, why not spring for a small laptop computer. Great for travel, and it gives you a world more flexibility than any portable DVD player. (Of course, it costs significantly more.)

So Far, So Good.......2007-05-15

I have only used the unit a few times since I got it a month ago, but it does play all DVD formats without a hitch as advertised, including PAL format. I have used Shure E4Cs, Koss headphones, and Logitech portable stereo portable speakers, and I've been very pleased with the quality of the sound. The screen size and image quality are excellent. The unit is quite portable and seems durable and well constructed. Some detractors had carped in their reviews about start-up motor noise, but I didn't find it at all bothersome. Although I haven't had time to fully test the battery's limits, it seems to be good for at least 4 hours. So far, I have no regrets whatsoever regarding this purchase.

wonderful quality.......2007-05-14

This is by far the best portable DVD player that I have seen. A little expensive however; the quality and sound makes up for the price. I would highly recommend this product.

Wonderful quality
