Philips DVD Player Ipod Dock 9 Inch LCD Screen

You may or may not recall this nifty Philips portable DVD player that let you snap your iPod into its box so you could play your digital media on the go. This new variant on the design is less about taking your player on the road, and more about playing your media at home.

Perfect for a kitchen countertop or any other place where you do not need a big screen, DCP951/37 Philips Docking Entertainment System moves away from the clamshell case design to a flat, one-piece design that can stand up on its own. The player features a 9-inch diagonal LCD screen and built-in stereo speakers.

A handy iPod dock / charger pops out of the side of the player, keeping it out of harm’s way until you need it. In addition to playback from DVD or iPod, there’sa built-in SD / MMC card slot if you prefer to keep your media on memory cards. It supports a wide variety of formats including DVD playback, DVD /-R and DVD /-RW, (S) VCD, DivX & MPEG4 videos.Since the player’s DNA comes from Philips portable DVD line, it’s also got a rechargeable battery, so you can take it on the road. You should get enough time to watch about 2.5 hours of video on a single charge.

The only real downside that I can see to this is the player displays less-than-stellar 640 x 220 resolution. For a 9-inch screen that’s pretty darned weak. As long as you can deal with the low display resolution, the DCP951 looks like a good fit for tight spaces and can perform double-duty as a portable.Vous May or May not recall the tremendous Philips portable DVD player that let you snap your iPod in its case if you can play your digital media on the road. This new variant of the design is less to take your drive on the road, in addition to play your media at home.
