The portable DVD player market volume makes this a popular size to
manufacture.

In addition to professional portable video production gear (built tough
and has high price from low market size) you  can look at the handheld
or pocket TVs. Many of them have A/V inputs (practically free to include
in the design) and all run from batteries. You might even find a good
price on a used one that doesn't work with the new digital TV
broadcasts. Try the usual online discounters & auctions.

Of course building from parts is also fun.  --Don
