Tosh 210e vs lg 4950 - which one?

Just swapped my tosh 210e for an lg 4950 to try then i have to pick one.
I bought the tosh 210e on the promise of multi-region capability coming but alas the shop i bought from offer me to swap it for this lg.
The differences i have found is that the lg is much quieter than the tosh by quite some bit. The control for the lg is hateful but once i get used to it i dont think i will complain about it. The only problem is i have a tosh tv and the picture from the tosh is superior than the lg.

So is it worth swapping so that i can get region 1 discs????
The decision is killing me - anyone got an opinion on this.

The sound is as good if not better from the lg.

Picture is the most important factor in any dvd player choice imo.

The answer is get the tosh210 but a multiregion version!

Very difficult decision to make. I have an LG 4210 player which I'm very happy with (especially at the price ). Both have advantages and disadvantages. If you can afford the Tosh and get it multiregioned, then this may be the way to go Seeing as you have tried both at home and have a Tosh TV
