Product Description
The ultimate travel companion, this Polaroid 7" Portable DVD Player delivers a fantastic color picture with amazing clarity. The sound is just as good thanks to a built-in Dolby Digital Decoder and built-in stereo speakers. And talk about versatile, besides DVDs, you can play or listen to DVD-R, DVD-RW, CD, CD-R, CD-RW, or view your latest vacation pictures on JPEG discs. And don't worry if your adventures are filled with bumpy roads, a built-in ESP function gives you an uninterrupted picture even while you're in motion. Need some privacy? An audio splitter allows for the use of two headphones so two people can listen in at the same time.
Amazon.com Product Description
The PDV-0701A portable DVD player from Polaroid Electronics lets you enjoy your movies, music, and digital photos when you're on the road or relaxing in the comfort of your own home. Its autosensing power adapter (AC 100 to 240V, 50/60 Hz) makes it perfect for international use, too -- a great companion for business or pleasure. The book-thin, MP3-friendly player features a broad, 7-inch LCD configured in a widescreen (16:9) aspect ratio whose dimensions closely approximate those of your favorite contemporary movies. A supplied rechargeable lithium-ion battery keeps your discs spinning for three to four hours between charges, and the player also comes with separate AC and DC power adapters for use indoors, in cars and boats -- you name it.

The PDV-0701A also offers built-in stereo speakers for headphones-free listening, picture zoom, and compatibility with DVD-Video, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3-encoded discs -- not to mention digital photos stored as JPEG images on recordable CD (you can rotate and zoom on these, as well). Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio output (through a .125-inch minijack-to-RCA coaxial cable, not supplied) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver.

Use the supplied AV interconnects to hook the player up with your television and/or stereo system. Playback options include frame-by-frame slow motion, forward and reverse play, and multiple-angle viewing (with applicable discs). Headphones are not included, though you do get a handy splitter for listening with a friend.

What's in the Box
DVD player, battery pack, headphone splitter, an auto-switching AC power adapter, DC vehicle adapter, audio/video interconnects, and a user's manual.

Product is fine but the case was broken.......2007-01-12

I got the product from CompUSA storefront. The shipment was prompt and I am happy with the overall quality of the product. The only problem that I had was with the broken case.

Smartest way to backup Windows®.......2001-09-14

While this medium is becoming increasingly irrelevant, it's still vital for Windows users needing to create a backup of vital program files in the event of a system crash that leaves your CD drive useless. The average home user of Windows (who backs up program data on Zip disks, CDs or tape) will not need more than 10 disks to back up her system. Colored disks are an especially smart way to back up your critical program files because you can create a more ordered backup environment. And the neon colors Imation puts out just look cool. In a crisis, your life will be made a little easier by the few extra pennies you spend on these colored disks.

My criticism of these disks is limited. First, I would have preferred having one more disk of each color, or the ability to buy a smaller pack consisting of a single color. That would have made color coding a little easier. Second, for especially heavy users of this media, this 10-pack is obviously not cost effective.

But these are truly minor qualifications. For most home or single computer users of Windows, this is the smartest way to backup core Windows (and some third party utility) elements for a rainy day.

Is a disk just a disk?.......2001-09-06

I'll shamelessly admit I bought these only because Amazon's system "recommended" them to me when I ordered a Sony digital camera (and I happened to need some disks anyway). They work just fine--is that high enough praise for a computer disk? Oh, and the colors are pretty.

Perfect match with SONY Mavica cameras.......2000-06-29

These floppies are very high quality and provide excellent storage. I use the floppies today exclusively for picture storage with the Sony Mavica FD-88 camera. Many floppy brands are troubled by causing very slow storage from the camera onto the floppy. The Imation does not have this problem. I get 2 sec storage time using these disks. I cannot recommend them highly enough for use with the Mavica line. And the bright colors, in addition to being fun, make the disks easy to spot among the huge pile of old disks in my desk.

Its a great camera. I like using the floppies, I have alot of them because I have switched to using Zips and CDs. I don't need to use more hardware plugged into my computer or more clutter on my desk. The Mavica, produces good pictures so far and is really user friendly. The zoom works wonderfully. For the price, the floppy convienience, great pictures (even in low light), and ease of operation, this is a bargain.
