Coby Electronics TF-DVD7107 7-Inch Portable DVD Player
I have purchased three of these as I have three children. The three were purchased over the past three years, we leave in New York and Sydney so we travel quite a bit and these have been fantastic for my 5yr, 3yr and now recently for my 2yr old. My main reason for purchasing this was because it's cheap and more important it can become a multi-region DVD player very easily. We have DVD's that are region 4 and region 1, there's nothing worse than being on a long haul flight and having my 3yr wanting to watch a DVD and not being able to. This DVD has been dropped a NUMBER of times by my 4yr old getting on and off planes and it has held up with no problems. When we stay in hotels etc. we just connect it up to the TV and instantly have all movies on hand. We have used them in our cars for long drives with the lighter adapter. For battery life it has worked well and we have only got caught out once when the battery died. Using the player as is and not fiddling with backlight etc. My kids are able to watch about 2.5 movies on one charge. 

My most recent model needed some modification to make it multi-region than previously so the software may have changed a bit. IT's basically the same but with one minor modification. 

Using the previous posts.

This has now set my unit to play any region DVD. Enjoy.
