No need to shout mate !

Incidentally, yes there is, before you ask :

http://www.area450.com/hacks/regionhack.htm

Nice player : details here

http://www.area450.com/thesampozone/players/dv740.htm

RRP is £180 (i.e. what rip-off merchants like Currys and Comet are selling them for), http://www.multiregionmagic.co.uk do them for £150 with the hack applied, and as Jimmy states, T J Hughes have the best price at the moment for £130.

In all cases the three free DVDs applies until 31/12/01. although I think this may be extended to 31/01/02.

Nice player, based on an existing Sampo design,(the US-only DVE611) with a Sharp designed front end.

Only problem is : first Sampo player not to have component out : that`s what stopping me buying one :-(

ok Clayts i`ll stop shouting about it ;) but its nice to get a decent player at the right price!,
keep the good work up on your site http://www.area450.com/
but as for using ezboard for your forum, in my opinion and probably that of many others, they want to know too many personal details when signing up (Address, Annual Household Income Before Taxes,
Marital Status etc,) which are not relevant when posting questions and answers on a site discussing DVD players. So I declined to sign up. Sorry!

Do T J Hughes do online orders? The nearest one to me is in smoggy Middlesbrough and I`d rather not go there again if I can help it!

Thanks.

Try Empire Direct - also £129.99 - and online ordering.

Anyone know if it plays MiniDVD yet?

As I understand area450/clayts etc it should.

Yes, the US version does, so there is nothing to suggest the UK version won`t as well.
