  • It looks like a nifty little thing, but I'd be wary of a couple of issues.
    As it doesn't say otherwise, I think it's safe to assume that the TV tuner is analogue only, plus I don't imagine that the little vertically polarised whip antenna is going to capture very much usable signal.
    Also, the 4:3 TV picture will be tiny on the 7" 16:9 screen.
    All of the above is of course IMHO,,, I'd be happy to be proven incorrect about the features/performance of this unit.

  • Definitely analogue only reception, very average price.

    For $199 I'd expect it to have a much larger screen and hopefully a DVB-T tuner! I am very suspicious about the quality of reception you'll get on this thing. I've played with other Philips 7" units and the build quality is usually quite good however the battery life is average (just about 2 and a bit hours) and the TFT-LCD screen is very average (backlight bleeding, low contrast ratio, etc).

    Better of spending $199 on a 8-9" player instead.

    • Hmmm, it's very naughty of Mr Philips to depict a wide-screen TV image on this device if it doesn't have a DVB-T receiver!!!

  • The TV Receiver is very mediocre, if anyone wants to buy one of these, it should be for the DVD player only
