Come on you lot- Sony Or Toshiba???!!!!

I STILL dont know whether to buy a Sony NS300 or Toshy SD210, Iv read loads of reviews all saying they are both good players. I posted a thread a few days ago but only got a couple of replies ( appreciated they were). Come on i need more juice!
There must be more owners out there who can tell me what they think of their players. I will get round to testing them out myself sometime but still, i need your help.....Anyone know any other good websites that review dvd players or oops- shouldnt i ask......

I dont own either, but if you search the posts there are LOADS of people who highly rate the Toshiba. And Sonys arent remote hackable, you`ll have to get it chipped if you want multi region , which will of course cost you extra.

Tosh has to be modded too, but at least there are plenty of places to get them form ready cooked

Yep one bad thing like that (noisy drive) can also make it the WORST player on this planet...

Thats one nice place thx for the link !

Cheaper too !

Id consider selling off my Scan player but i want too too desperately see the image quality first, if its a BIG difference like everyone claims id get it:)

The Tosh has scooped every award/top spot in every mag ive seen.
not too sure how it compares too the Sony model but there was a Sony mag in the new what hi-fi mag and it did get 5/5 like the tosh player.
