Question Sony BDP-S360 Multiregion

Hi,
I've just bought a Sony BDP-S360 Blu-ray player and would like to make it multiregion / region free.
First I'd like to make the DVD region free, any clues, can this be done, has anybody done this and how can I do this?
Can the Blu-ray player be made region free?
My local Sony Centre have offered to make the DVD region free for £20 but I'm sure there is a cheaper way.
Cheers

The 360 can only be made Blu-Ray MR via a hardware mod I believe.

As for DVD's, it can be done using a Harmony Remote.There are plenty of threads about it on this forum.

See this thread....

We recently bought a 1080p flat screen and want to utilise its capability, so have since been looking into Blu-Ray, HD Freesat/Freeview and now just seem to have more questions than ever.

Opinions please as to the Sony BDPS360 that appears to be available from a few sources at the extremely reasonable price of £80. I appreciate that it is a starter model and will not necessarily perform as well as a top of the line model, but can we expect to get the same sort of standard as most units at just under £200? Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

It ws a £200 model when launched, its simply near the end of its life and Sony want rid of remaining stock, hence the deals.
