Video screens, video screens, video screens. Blaring, flashing, assaulting. In the aisles of the supermarket. In line at the bank. Above the urinals in a restroom near you. Fifty billion video screens and nothing on worth watching, just unconvincing and intrusive pleas to buy stuff you’re probably already there to buy.

Isn’t it time we fought video with video?

Tote the Toshiba SD-KP19 Portable DVD player along on your daily errands and start watching what you want to watch, not what some ruthless marketing ghouls insist you should watch. The 8” TFT LCD displays your preferred movin’ pitchers at 480×234 resolution for up to 4 hours on one battery charge. Wasted time becomes movie time – you’re not just standing in a queue to cash a check, you’re swinging from the rooftops of Gotham or peeking into the windows on Wisteria Lane!

What’s more, the SD-KP19 will play a whole alphabet soup of video files, including DivX, AVI, and MPEG4 formats. Just burn those mugs to a CD-R/RW and have your own codec moments, up to and including DivX 6.x. If motion isn’t your thing, it’ll show off your JPEGs, too, with a 4-in-1 card slot to accomodate SD, MMC, Memory Stick, and XD Picture cards. Two headphone output jacks let you share the joy with a pal, or you can set the sound free with the internal speakers. Various other inputs and ouputs make the Toshiba SD-KP19 a dislay device for external sources, or a source device for external displays. It goes both ways.

If you see us at the grocery store or the post office and we don’t wave, say hello, or acknowledge your presence in any way, it’s nothing personal. We’ll just be too busy staring deeply into our Toshiba SD-KP19 Portable DVD player. Reality’s fine in its place, but dude, we got movies to watch.
