Man I remember when these portable DVD players first hit stores. This thing would have been like $500.00. I noticed in past threads of discover and/or other cards offering some sizable gift. I feel like there was one for a GPS and another for something else. If I'm not mistaken weren't people having a hard time actually getting said rewards in the mail? This is a pretty sweet deal. I just want to make sure that I'm actually going to get it though. Your thoughts?

The GPS showed up much faster than expected. I am hoping the same happens with the DVD player.

I made a $1.08 purchase on this card in order to fulfill the purchase requirement for this offer. I made no other purchases during my statement month. Then I found out that Discover applied a "small balance credit" to my monthly statement, which credited the $1.08 purchase, so I have a statement with zero balance and no payment required. Apparently, they do this when the monthly balance is small (perhaps under $2) so as to not have to process and mail out a statement. Hopefully, this won't screw anything up with the DVD player offer?

Happened to me once with a Sony Visa $150 offer. Just make another charge but a little bigger this time.

Why take a chance? Buy your next thing with this card? Right now, when I activated the clerk told me, you get 5% back on gasoline. This is the quarterly reward dealio.

I already got the canon a580 camera. I'm going to try to get the this because it would be nice to entertain my daughter in the car.

this is probably the worst item that has been offered so far from myfreeoffer. most people now have laptops so these portable dvd players are becoming extinct. im waiting for something good to come around so i can get in on it.

The idea that most people have laptops is a bold assertion. Portable DVD players are still very much in demand.

It would be like saying that most cars have a GPS in them from the factory so the Garmin nuvi200 offer was bad.

I read somewhere that if you use your computer to watch DVD a lot(especially on the road), your computer's cdrom part could be damaged.

I got the a580 camera about 2 months ago. I didn't cancel the credit card. I tried to apply for this credit card and it says I will get a decision in a few days. I didn't get an e-mail when I try to apply for it. What are the chances that I will get rejected?

Has anyone received portable DVD player yet

Well, I made my first purchase on 6/28. I haven't been billed yet, so I would assume you have to be billed and post a payment before the processing kicks in. I might be wrong about having to pay first, but it would make sense.

I sent email to info@mydvdplayeroffer.com (please check addy via the link) and got a stock reply from someone that it will be 6-9 weeks afetr I activate the card (i.e,, make a purchase) little unhappy that they should have been able to look at my account and seen that I have started using the card actually..

Been waiting for 3 weeks already. Checked the status online (http://secure.broadbandoffers.com/support/lookups/new) but only received an order number and item has not been shipped yet.

At least they got my info right. I will wait a few more weeks.

Laptops do not have the same battery life as a dedicated portable DVD player.

Actually, the battery life on this DVD player is pretty bad compared to other portable players that can do 6+ hours. It only has "Up to 2.5 hours of playback with built in battery", which is comparable to a laptop.
