This is a really nice player. It feels and looks good as well as simply being good. I was disappointed that I recieved a black one rather than the red one on the site, but the black is a really nice soft black - like a killer whales back. So nice that I think I actually prefer the black to the red shown. A whole lot nicer than the shiny metalic units.
The screen is clean and clear, the instructions simple, the features great. I would say this is equally a man's or a woman's item. ( going to my daughter in uni.)
The best thing is the rubberized feel and non slip design. No need for a separate case.
The only poor thing about this player is the little lock that keeps it closed. It has a tendency to pop up exposing the inside to dust. Would pop open if carried in a briefcase - needs a velcro strap for travel.

Toshiba's SD-P1200 is not only portable, but durable, fashioned with a rubberized, "sure grip" design made for travel. The player features a broad, 7-inch widescreen (16:9) active-matrix LCD and a built-in rechargeable battery (good for about 3.5 hours between charges). It handles DVD-Video and DVD-R playback as well as both standard and recordable CDs, including MP3 and JPEG-encoded discs. Storing over 10 hours of MP3 music per disc, you'll be able to travel lighter than ever. And with dual headphone jacks, you can watch or listen with a friend.
The SD-P1200 is serious about image quality, using a 12-bit/54 MHz video digital-to-analog conversion for maximum color purity, detail, and resolution across all 500 display lines. A handy feature called 3D virtual surround simulates surround sound effects from sources that contain only a two-channel (stereo) soundtrack.

Toshiba's JPEG Viewer lets you view digital photographs from discs made on a personal computer in the JPEG format, on any television. There's even an intuitive onscreen display to help you make customized slideshows with just a few simple clicks of the DVD player's remote control. Other features include chapter preview, high-speed smooth-motion scan in forward and reverse, repeat mode, title/chapter search, and skip forward/reverse. Headphones are not included.
