♥♥♥♥ TERRIBLE picture quality and mediocre design
I purchased this player as a replacement because I clumsily killed my Toshiba SD-P1900 9" player. I figured, even with a half-inch loss of screen size, I'd still be in the game, right? Panasonic's a great brand name, right? WRONG.

This particular Panasonic model not only has lousy picture quality and no remote, but there are no fast forward or fast rewind functions other than skipping all the way ahead or all the way back to the beginnings of scenes. I'm a film buff, so I like to be able to back up two or three seconds to check out that explosion in fps detail, or to move forward or backward at 2X or 4X or 8X, etc. Plus, if you extend the adjustable screen forward as shown in most illustrations, you cannot see or reach the control buttons without moving it out of your way.

I'm no video product engineer, but I hope my impression of the VERY inadequate picture quality and overall poor design of this player makes you think twice. Go for the Toshiba instead!
