You can purchase them with dual screens or single screens, in the style of screen that swivels with a base player or those in tablet style that have everything in one tablet shaped screen including the actual player itself. They are easily mounted on the backs of seats with complete holders and come with many accessories such as remote controls, headphones and terrific carrying cases.

You can find these players on the internet, in most large department stores, in every electronic store and even, as hard as it is to believe, in some drug stores.
