    For €99, that would be a bargain!

    I got one the last time they were in stock, they are nice enough, the remote control is not bad either, the main thing though, there is a dummy IR red LED on the front, makes you think thats its very neat but it does not work, you get an ir on a lead a little thing the size of a sweet, and with the remote psu and the composite to scart concector it kind of has a few too many leads, I use it as a bedside MP3 player, it is region protected also, have not figured how to remove protection yet, and also there is no proper headphone connection, you can plug the head phones directly into the audio out but you have no vloume control (unless its on your head phones like mine)

    thats it really, they said they'd bring the screens out at some other stage, if they do you can power it from the player , it has a 12V output for a screen, the all in one units for 180 sounds a bit better if you want a portable one, i mean how much will a screen be? Powercity have small DVD units for 60 with volume, proper remote and built in PSU , so i dont know, i paid €127 for my one , but even at €100 i dont think i'd buy it thins tme around
