 Junk January 8, 2008
Stephen J. Nardi (Kalispell Montana)
The first time I tried to play a DVD on the player ,it didn't work. The disc stopped every 10-15 seconds. I had to start it all over again repeatedly. After 6-8 tries, I gave up and sent it back for a refund which I still haven't recieved. Don't even think of buying this product.

Mintek has no customer service. Sent a Dvd player to them for minor repair, after 2 months they wanted $60 to repair. I refused and they sent back the player totally disabled. Do not buy from this company!
 Used for years, still clicking along... January 7, 2007

RELIABILITY
Purchased this in mid-2004 -- used for lots of car trips, airplane trips, and motels. Still works. This is quite a robust little DVD player, and a darn good buy.
Black screen problem -- it seemed to get a bit confused; turn it off, switch to the output type you want (onscreen is 'tft', a different display is 'video'). The black screen problem went away. Note, even when the screen is black, you can see the image in strong light, it's just that the light behind the screen is not on because it thinks you're watching a different TV.
It starting making clicking noises a couple of years ago as the disk spins around. Obviously, this is not a harbinger of doom, as it has still been running strong.
I had problems with it recognizing a disk, once. Turns out there was condensate on the lens, so I dried it and the problem was again resolved.
FEATURES
Pretty well listed everywhere else. Yes the image is good. Yes the sound is better through earphones. Battery life is 2.5 hours...still, after 2 years.
I hate to even give this 1 star - 5 Weeks to Fix It ?????? March 29, 2006

I purchased this as a gift. Christmas day we had to call Mintek. It seized up. The tech lady said "just take your finger and slide the optics back and forth a few times... that usually fixes it.." Well.. I'm no genius on laser optics and all the gearing involved, but that does not sound like a great "fix". I have been on the phone with these folks numbers of times. It continues to seize up, refuse to turn on and assorted other problems. Now I have sent it to them to replace. Mintek lady calls me and says they just received it and will send it back in (5) FIVE weeks. I yelled "put a new one in the mail and send it." No... evidently it comes in with a "Batch" and can only go out with a "Batch". Evidently Mintek only ships stuff out every 5 weeks of so. I have visions of young Chinese with their fingers on the optics sliding them back and forth....
Bottom line... If you have a choice. Choose something else!!!

I don't have the space to explain all the places this thing has been. True it does pause on some titles, it does refuse to play on occasion. I bought it in Oct 03 before going to Afghanistan. While I was there I used it virtually everyday for 9 months. I brought it back home and used it in the car and house for 17 months with a 2-year-old constantly beating on it. Everytime I thought it was gone, it came back to life. Now I've spent 4 months in Iraq without a problem. Blow the dust out every once in a while and have patience. Maybe I just got lucky but I'd do it again.
On a final note, when the remote came up missing, the Mintek website still has the model predominantly listed and all the accessories are still available for replacement. I have a Kodak camera I bought last Christmas (2004) and I can barely find a mention of it on their site.
