We use our laptop for movie-viewing. As Brian stated, no extra stuff to worry about, which is always important in a 13-ft. house! Works well for us - L 'n D

In November I purchased a 13" TV with built in DVD. I paid Wally World $98 for it. It's a CRT TV, not a newer style LCD. But, for $98 you can't go wrong.

It stores where the porta potty would go, below the front couch. It sits on the sink counter to view. From there I can drop a line outside if the campsite has cable tv available.

Fiberglass friend,
We use a 5 inch black&white SONY tv ($8.00 @ church sale),and a Polaroid 8 1/2 inch DVD player($100.00 @ Circuit City w/ carry case-day after Thanksgiving).
Like Lex we also bring DVDs recorded at home.Currently making DVDs of the C-SPAN presidents series,taped in 1999, to view before we continue our presidents tour-Indiana in Spring-William Henry Harrison and Benjamin Harrison.

We watch DVDs the old fashion way. 13" Sharp LCD TV and Toshiba DVD player from the house. Toshiba is 17" X 8" X 1.5" and the TV fits nicely on top. We place both on a pivoting arm TV shelf attached in the corner of the Compact.

Got a 9" TV/DVD from WalMart a couple years ago. It's a CRT, so it has to stow in the closet, but it works on AC or DC. Watching a movie seems to use more electric power than just watching airwave TV. The brand is Orion, but I have seen the same unit in other stores with the Toshiba label.
The screen is flat and gives a great picture. It is great for broadcast, OK for movies, and a little small for video games or football.
About $150
