Default whats do u guys think of this?

i have a baby on the way and since the car seat goes in the middle of the back seat (thats where ive seen it mounted in rams) and since im looking for a new indash radio to upgrade the factory one i thought this may work.its a radio for me and an indash dvd for when the baby is in the truck so he can watch cartoons or something.i know its not a name brand but its under $200 and it has a 4.5 out of 5 as well as 25 great reviews.i dont want to spent over $200 on a radio so should i buy this or just spend the money on a radio with no dvd? http://www.walmart.com/Xovision-Touc...0#BVQAWidgetID

i bought a Jensen in dash from Wal-mart for my GTI a few years back. it worked for a few months, then slowly buttons stopped workin and stuff. it was a POS! ON THE OTHER HAND, 2 of my buddies got the same head unit and they both still work. so i dunno, but ya figure for a couple hundred bucks thats not too bad of a deal. just a suggestion, you might find a better, name brand model off ebay, or craigslist. i would check that first. (IMO)

I had one of those Wal-Mart brand DVD players that strapped to the seat.....it was given to me. It worked pretty well and you could move it to other cars.

The baby faces backward for like the first year so he/she won't even be able to see the screen
