In Sept.08, I brought 2 DVD players with screens and a big used kareoke machine to give away to friends, with no questions asked thru Punta Cana Airport, if asked, one was for my car and the other for where I'm staying, There only concern was the 6 or 7 cell phones I had. And I explained with a cocky American attitude, that I have old business phone numbers in them. They seem to harrass Dominicans and I look Dominican, but as soon as they realize that I'm american and don't understand a word that they are saying, they just lead me to another line or leave me alone, with my ,I'm just here to spend money attitude...................Next time I go, I will have a good portable unit in my carry-on along with my lab-top, and one or two cheapies in my bags along with my friends throw away phones, which I get activated for around $7.00us, the only ones I can't get activated are Nextel phones .............Oh, also
another kareoke player, with mikes...............all for personal use, mind you..........
Portable players go for around $150-250us
