INTRODUCTION

Congratulations, you’ve just bought the sexiest, portable TV/DVD on the

planet. Of course, we may be biased. But consider this: It’s cable, antenna

and rabbit ears ready. It’ll play DVDs and CDs. It’s even MP3 compatible.

Truly, it’s an all-in-one, one-of-a-kind wonder. But don’t let its compact

size fool you. It may not take up lots of room, yet stereo speakers know

how to fill a room with sound. With all that it can do, it’s a pretty hard

working piece of electronics. Hmmm, might it be over-compensating for

something? Like its small size perhaps? We’ll never know.
