I'm sure all kids are different. We had a run-in with a portable DVD player for a while that was obsessive like you describe. We had to put it away. The power struggle around enforcing moderate usage turned out to be more negative than just extinguishing the behavior all together. The DVD player only comes out for plane trips now.
