RE: SONY DVPPQ1 DVD player FUNKY!

dunno why this was moved from bargain buckets forum ??!??!

but anyway the place to get this player from for £127 delivered is http://www.indigo-av.co.uk/shop/DVD_Player.htm

which I think is a bargain!!!!

RE: SONY DVPPQ1 DVD player FUNKY!

I rang the AV-LAND to see if they would price match £127.49 but no success plus they didn`t have any in stock anyway!

but I asked about the Multi Region and apparently its a remote hack cos I asked if they had opened up the hardware and he said no

I have just checked the link to AV-LAND and it was wrong, just updated it so you can see what it says for yourself, but it definetly advertises its multiregion. (hope it is remote hackable)

I dunno if they have got hold of the `special` remote or not tho, didn`t really give any more info when I asked

the place I want to get it from also didn`t have any in stock, maybe this Friday if not next Wednesday for them

Also asked if it was MultiRegion and was told no, but they may be looking into it

RE: LG 20

boo hoo! :-(

10% discount don`t work and the new offer is £10 discount if you spend £100

just a penny short!

so all I have done is buy a £10 O2 pay as you go voucher which I need anyway (only 64p left!) and got my £10 discount!!

so basically I got a free £10 phone voucher buying the TV

that`ll do nicely

RE: SONY DVPPQ1 DVD player FUNKY!

Yep It`s the same one, also £140+del at Dixons with £10 discount so £127 delivered ain`t bad, (if it`s in stock)

unbeatable`s price is £133 inc del which is a fiver more, but chances are they are in stock

there is a site selling this player as multiregion,http://www.avland.co.uk/sony/dvppq1/index.htm , so there will be a hack for it somewhere

If you goto http://www.sony.com/psyc you can personalize the insert on the player also

I like the fact I can quickly unplug it and take it upstairs, to my mates just like a CD walkman

RE: Lite-On PC DVD drive 16X

another vote for the Liteon, mine`s a bit noisy sometimes tho compared to other I have

picked mine up for £28 at local computer fair, flashed no probs to make it region free

also bought a samsung 16x48, yet to try flash tho, got that for £29, hoping it`s a bit quieter

RE: SONY DVPPQ1 DVD player FUNKY!

oh well, yet again I ask ask a question when the answer is only a click away

Yes it does play DVD-R & DVD-RW!
