M8 you might just want to check the rating of the included power converter to ensure it's at least 100w. Someone else bought a unit from the same place and it included a 45w power supply that blew and damaged the player (look at the "disaster" post in this thread). I believe the supplier is rectifying the problem and changing the unit for future sales but better safe than sorry....

Thanks for confirming this player is good, I was a little concerned as everyone has the A1, to be honest thats what i would've got if it were in stock. When i saw that it's only sold through wall-mart in the states, i was slightly worried, bit like buying it from matalan i guess.
All my over AV gear is silver, so it will look a little odd, but nevermind, it's the quality of picture that counts.
Thanks m8

Thanks m8you will love it , make sure when you set it up the first thing you do when you turn it on is set the v/output button to hdmi , i didint do this first of all and panicked untill a half hour later i thought i better read the manual,have you got any hd dvds on the way?

LoL i never read manuals, so im sure i'd've not done it and freaked out too.
Where do you set this v/output? Is it in the dvd player menu?
Can you set it to 50hz/60hz?
I've got Serenity, Doom, Last Samurai and Jarhead coming with it. So can't wait to see Serenity and Doom.
Anything else i need to be aware of? Just hope i don't get this hdmi error that allot of people have been getting.

1. V.out is a button on the remote
2. 60hz only
3. make sure your display is switched on first otherwise you will get an HDMI error.
