Any reviews on this? Heard some1 mention these were pretty good.

Also looks black in the pic, but is it actually silver?

Also can anyone confirm this plays HDdvds?

A newer version DVP5982 is out in the US with USB 2.0 support and external hard disks can be hooked on without extra power cables required.

I am not sure if or when this will be available here in the UK, can anyone comment or update on this please.

No, it's not a next gen player. It just uses some digital trickery to "upscale" your current DVDs to higher resolution. I recommend actually looking at upscaling players before buying one. Personally I think they often look worse... but it's up to you.

I would agree with all the above comments, especially spending that bit more for the Sony if you got money burning a hole in your pocket, otherwise hold back for now a lot more & superior gadgets to be released this summer.

It is Black and I can vouch for it being a very good player. It does not play HD DVDs.

I can't find a Sony on Amazon with a USB input. How is the Sony far superior?

Pukcode - could you elaborate?

I'm thinking of buying a DVD recorder in the next week or two, but if prices are going to drop in a couple of months (or new shiny gadgets come out that I might prefer) then I'll hold off. Ta.

As I said I can't see any reference to a USB input. Can you confirm it has one? If not it can't play DivXs from a USB stick or harddrive like the Philips. As for Pixmania, they are based in France and their customer service is appalling.

I have the sony and it does not have a USB input.

Can get it multi -region from here.

It is a very good upscaling DVD player.

Nice deal Jefft!!!
Voted Hot.

I'm not sure you can compare a Sony that is at least £21 dearer and has no USB input. However put it up as a new deal in the forum if you can track down a reliable provider.
