Pocket-lint report Mustek have released some interesting new portable DVD players:

Mustek has launched two new portable TV/DVD players in the run up to Christmas. With integrated an DVB-T receiver, the devices can not only playback DVDs and CDs, but digital TV as well.

Sounds like a great idea for the long car trips.

MobileWhack report the availability of a portable DVD player from Mustek that includes a TV tuner, the Mustek DTV407:

Here’s an example of cramming too much into one device. The new Mustek DTV407 is a portable DVD player that includes a terrestrial digital TV receiver.

This means you can access DVB-T, MPEG-1 and MPEG-2. You also get a remote control to go with the DTV407. Capable of storing a thousand channels, you don’t have to be a couch potato anymore to access your favorite TV shows.

The screen is rather nice at 7″, an active matrix TFT screen. The standard set of features, of course, include playback of DVDs, CDs, MP3s and JPEG photos. Also get a rechargeable battery and car lighter adapter for US $365

MobileWhack tell us of the upcoming release at CES of two new portable DVD players from Mustek:

Mustek will also be unveiling two new, affordable DVD players at the CES in January, the MP70C (pictured on the right) and MP72. Both the players sport a 7″ screen.

There does seem to be a rash of new portable DVD players entering the market lately which would indicate that these are selling well still, despite the competition from the hard drive based players. The most likely reasons would be the larger screens and not having to go through the somewhat slow process of uploading video - and being limited to only those movies on the device.

Mustek have announced an upcoming 10inch portable DVD player, the Mustek MP100, as MobileWhack report:

Mustek today announced that it will be launching its new line up of DVD players for 2006, including the spiffy Mustek MP100 featuring DivX support. It’s a portable little desktop theater with a 10″ 16:9 widescreen swivel LCD.

The MP100 plays DVDs, CD/R/RW, MPEG4, MP3 for audio and comes with integrated image viewer. While USB 2.0 compatibility is not clear, it features an MMC/SD card reader, which means you can quickly preview songs/photos from several portable devices that use these cards.

The MP100 also offers anti-shock protection - very useful of course - and progressive scan for some very neat image quality. The battery life is supposed to be pretty good, and it can be recharged quite easily.

The music files supports MP3 and WAV while the video playback supports MPEG-2, MPEG-4, WMV, DivX, XviD, and M-jpeg.
