Secure Your Portable DVD Player

There`s nothing like a good movie to keep your children quite in any situation. This is one of the biggest selling points of Portable DVD players. These players have the ability to go anywhere, they are compact and have become relatively affordable in recent years. Portable DVD players can turn the family car into a rolling movie theater that minimizes cries of ?Are we there yet??, but simply handing a child a player to hold is a recipe for disaster. Children quickly tire of holding duties, and sudden stops can lead to drops and associated damage.

A number of aftermarket "in the bag" solutions are available, but are not easy to install and may interfere with valuable free seat or knee space. Some blogs have suggested using giant rubber bands or bungee cords to secure a portable DVD player, both of which may be dangerous around small children. There is safe, practical solution. Digital Innovations? MobileDR Portable Solutions Series? Mo-Go? solves the problem by mounting the player between the front seat headrests for hands-free viewing.

Smaller than a computer keyboard, the Mo-Go is a rectangular platform that installs in seconds with spring-loaded mounting arms that extend from both sides. Simply pull the arms out to the appropriate length, hook one arm over each headrest, and secure the DVD player onto the platform with the two built-in straps. The player will stay firmly in place in the event of bumps, lurches or even an accident.
