98 Acura TL 2.5 - In-Dash DVD Player Suggestions?

Hi all. I'm looking to pick up an in-dash DVD player for my 1998 Acura TL 2.5. What does everyone suggest that I use? I'm looking to spend $650 or less. I don't really want to go all out, but I want it to be a nice unit. I've been eyeing this unit from Crutchfield:

http://www.crutchfield.com/S-BMufRac...780DV&g=168550

that's about the max I want to spend on something like this, as I want to put money towards other aspects of the car. Can anyone recommend a unit that's better than that one for the same price? I'd like it to be a touchscreen, if possible.

Also, I hear that you can only play movies while the car is parked. Is that true? I'd like for my front seat passenger to be able to watch movies while I drive.

Thanks
Adam

I looked there, but a lot of the stuff is cheesy merch from Hong Kong, and none of them have the touchscreen.

See, I don't want to spend that much really. $600-650 is really the highest I want to go.

if you're going for performance in your car (nice surround sound/boomy bass), I wouldn't waste money on a screen. If you do want a motorized flip out, you can find some on ebay by alpine or pioneer. Ebay is your best friend
