Default Rear entertainment recommendations?

Just ordered the Vizualogic A-1250 All-in-One Headrest Monitor
based upon recommendation from my Audi dealer's preferred installer. Installing dual monintors on Friday. Any recommendations based on what others have done? I have until tomorrow morning to cancel the order so appreciate all feedback. Is this the best or are there others to consider? Also what should the going rate for this be?

I just bought a Q7 with the Vizualogics system in the headrests, with the wireless headphones. Have only used it a few times since we bought the vehicle, but it seems to work great. The only thing I notice is that the remote has to be pointed directly at the monitor's IR port to work - although this could be my batteries as well.

Don't have any idea on price as it was already installed when I bought it.

Vizualogic is the most popular (by reports this forum). Second is Invision. No negative reports on either system.

why spend thousands for headrest systems? You could have dual iPads for $1000. And they would serve many other purposes also.

I agree I could buy two ipads cheaper but toddlers would not get the same enjoyment from them as they would the rear monitors. They don't want to have to hold onto anything; we struggled with portable DVD players for awhile.

I have the A1250 installed in my 06/2006 Q7, and audio is connected to aux box in the glove compartment dension GW500. Works great.
