Man this thing is really the BOOM.If you don't get this your sick .The best thing about it is when you don't have a t.v. in you room just kick back and play it on the xbox. No little sister saying ''I want to watch little LULU.
I hate it

i know, this is a great idea, really, but for the size of the whole thing, only 5.6" is used, and it's really expensive. With the money you could use to buy this, you could get a 13" TV with a built-in VCR. And the issue of playing in the car: if playing in the car is really that important to you, just get one of the car TV's, but it troubles me to think that our society is so revolved around electronics that we can't even have a meaningful discussion in a car and that we have to play video games we already get enough of at home in a car. I mean, come on!
Sorry for the trouble

So, here is a tiny screen, for big $$$, that we ALL need. Right?
Wrong !!!. Have you tried setting a XBox on your lap. A real thrill... Where are we supposed to put this thing so we can see it while we are playing it in the car. Ceiling, floor, another seat. I cannot understand how it could be used. Another bad concept.
This product is garbage...

I have heard that earlier 5" models of this product were good, but the 5.6" and 5.4" versions are terrible. It appears to use passive matrix screen technology which is very comparable to the old Sega Game Gear screen only worse. The blur is really bad, and the color and brightness are bad also. For example, playing Splinter Cell is impossible, because the screen is so dark, even at the highest brightness, you can't see anything that's going on. Playing DOA3 and other games with super-bright graphics is possible, but still not great. The color is bad, and actually looks like the screen might only be displaying 256 or less colors. You can tell this on any screen that has a color gradient; instead of a smooth color transition, you get sharp breaks in color like old fashioned dithering.
The sound from the unit is actually pretty impressive, and the way it connects to the Xbox is very well designed. None of this matters, though, because you are buying it for the screen.
This is probably the worst product of any kind I have purchased in years..
Not For Mobile Use

I don't actually have this product,but i would like to make a short note. It is probably designed more for network gaming, rather than lugging it around on vacation. So for portable games, buy a portable system. But, again, this is designed for networking multiple systems. You see now the convenience of carrying a light screen rather than a large 27" television.
P.S.-It wouldn't have the following if it was portable:
1)rubber feet to avoid falling on someone
2)trip wires on the controllers
What a item

How can you not like a pordable screen! All you need is a jack for a car and you are all set to play. I go on many trips and this works out perfect.So i recamend this to all.
