Entertainment is constantly improving. Now I'm not just referring to all the CG and wondrous cinematic effects you see on the big screen. I am thinking more along the lines of convenience. We now have dual screen portable dvd player systems in our vehicles for entertainment while traveling. It's a synch to take them in and out or maybe even on an airplane. Have you had a DVD player installed in your mini van? Let me tell you, it's definitely great for keeping the little ones occupied on long road trips. And with dual screens, you can set it up so each child has his/her own picture to view. You've got to love where the entertainment/electronic market is headed.
Laptop or dual screen portable dvd player? That is the question. A close friend of mine has a portable DVD set-up he uses on trips with his family. They drive a mini van like ours and the system is a synch to mount in the vehicle for the children to watch. I think the parents love this even more than the kids.
He tells me there is no more fighting on long road trips and outings. However, I already have a laptop that plays DVDs fine. So does my wife, and so does my teenage daughter. It seems weird for me to invest in a dual screen portable dvd player. The truth is I could just take a couple laptops in the van with us, plug them into power outlets, and play two different DVDs at the same time. In fact, we've actually done this before and it worked perfectly. Wow, I guess when you think about it, there are just so many convenient entertainment options these days.
Furthermore, now people are able to watch motion pictures on their cellular phones. This is nuts! I think it's great, but man that would be a small screen.
Circuit City and Best Buy are the primary places to start. If you truly think a dual screen portable dvd player would benefit your vehicle, then it's time to compare prices. You can also do this on bizrate.com or shopzilla.com. Not only should you get the prices on every dual screen portable dvd player, but you should also take a gander at recent reviews. With all this information at your disposal, you can surely find a dual screen portable dvd player that suits your needs and price range.
One of life’s primal situations; the game of hide and seek. Oh, the delicious thrill of hiding while the others come looking for you, the delicious terror of being discovered, but what panic when, after a long search, the others abandon you! You mustn’t hide too well. You mustn’t be too good at the game. The player must never be bigger than the game itself.
— Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
