We like:
Smart design; pivoting neck; huge screen; plays DVD-RAM discs
We don't like:
Flickery video playback; composite video output; no DivX support; virtually no included accessories
You might also need:
DVD video discs, carry case, Panasonic AV cables
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The DVD-LS90 has a large screen and pivoting neck which make it immediately impressive for train journeys, while DVD-RAM playback is one of its talents -- useful if you have a Panasonic DVD recorder. But its video quality is hampered by a large screen size, its video outputs are of a low quality and the lack of DivX playback is an important omission, meaning that it can't compete with cheaper and better specified models
