Good Product. See bellow comments.......2007-12-18

Previously I owned Toshiba SD-280 Region free DVD player.

It had a lot of bad issues.

1. Some DVD-R discs had problems playing with this player.
2. For some reason, sometimes I had a hard time playing regular DVDs clearly. (Image cracks sometime.)
3. Even though DVD discs play well, still the images were not clear enough. I can see lines on the picture.
4. If turning off and turn on again, I always have to start from the beginnning. It means the player cannot remember the last point that I was watching which is very annoying.

And of course there was no HDMI system.

The new Phiilips DVD players that I got has all the good things that Toshiba did not had.

First, prograssive scan can make the DVD image at least 5 times better even without hooking with HDMI code but with Coaxial wire. I haven't use HDMI wire yet. I am very anxious to.

Second, it remembers the last point that I was watching. (This is so normal but since my previous DVD player didn't, so I felt so nice.)

Third, it has a various sound options to improve my home theater system.

Fourth, It shows the whole running time include hours and minutes, secondes which also Toshiba didn't had.

But one thing I do not like is it takes some time to boot when turning it on. Let's say three times slowrt than usual. But it is acceptable.

Also size is a bit too long. Not too long to fit in any TV stand,...... but still too long compare to other DVD players.

BUT STILL,...Most of all satisfying.

Excellent DVD player, excellent price........2007-12-12

I purchased this DVD player so that I could play DVDs from other regions. When I put my first non-US DVD in the player, it wouldn't play which was fairly frustrating. However, after finding instructions to set the player to Region 0 (which plays everything) the problem was fixed. The DVD player itself produces a high quality picture, is easy to operate, reasonably priced, and as an added bonus is great looking. My one issue is with the DVD drawer, it appears the new thing in DVD players is to make the drawer as slim as possible, which makes it hard to get the DVD in the tray right the first few times. It's something that takes a little getting used to, but once you do, it's not an issue so I didn't take points off on my rating. I would recommended this product if you're looking for a DVD that can play more than one region.
Below are the instructions posted by another Amazon reviewer for setting the DVD to Region 0.
Power Up the unit with NO Disc in the tray.
Open the tray
Press the SETUP Button on the remote control
Navigate to the PREFERENCES page using the Right Arrow Key
Press the DOWN ARROW one time to select
Press the 1 button on your remote control
Press the 3 button on your remote control
Press the 8 button on your remote control
Press the 9 button on your remote control
Press the 3 button on your remote control
Press the 1 button on your remote control
The current Region Code Setting will display
Use the UP/DOWN Arrow Keys to select the region required or '0' for All Regions
Press the PLAY Button on the remote control

Great product.......2007-12-09

I am loving this. I bought it for my wife to enjoy her foreign DVDs and it works great. HDMI and HD cable outputs look and sound fantastic. Although there isn't an optical output on the back so I'll have to use a coax which is just fine.

The upconverting feature is super easy to use, you just push a button on the front and it give a little digital readout of which resolution it is now set at....and you're done. No menus to fuss with or anything.

Philips Does It Again!!.......2007-12-01

I love this DVD player! The picture is clean, clear and crisp! Never had such a clear picture on my TV. I got mine during Black Friday for $48 from Best Buy. It was only eight dollars more than a standard DVD player and I'm glad I made the choice! I also love the audio settings. The "Virtual Surround" option gives deep bass and great clarity to my mini home theatre system! I definitely recommend purchasing this!

After having gone through 3 name brand DVD players I can say that I am a bit picky. Saying that, I do really like this machine. HDMI makes a wonderful difference. Set up is a breeze and if it isn't defaulted to Region 0, the forums have the answer. This makes it so easy for US users to see other great films from around the world.

The remote is about one-half the size of other remotes. Also the lettering is a miniscule 1 millimeter in height, try that in a dimly lit room. The remote also lacks an 'Eject/Load' button. I am flabbergasted at this oversight. The manual says to keep the 'Stop' button depressed to eject the disc. Go figure. Finally, the recess in the load tray is so shallow that it is rare when you get the DVD correctly aligned prior to loading.

The added features, like USB haven't been used by me, so I can't comment. So, now knowing what to expect, go ahead and purchase this player and explore a world wide variety of movies.

I Love This GPS!!!!!.......2007-03-10

I purchased this GPS at Staples on Boxing Day. I absolutely love it!! I chose this one over the Tom Tom ones based on consumer reviews. I had to re-calibrate it one time, but other than that, no problems at all!!! At first I continued to "MapQuest" my adventures, just in case, but no longer do that. I no longer have to worry about reading directions in the dark while I'm driving. I have since purchased one for my sister. I love that I can use it in any car that I happen to be driving.

I wish it came with a case, but since it didn't, I purchased a small camera case for $6.00 and it fits perfectly in there. The Mio C310 is small enough to fit in the inside pocket of my coat, but is big enough that I don't have a problem reading even the street names if I want to.

I have not used the MP3 player feature yet.

I absolutely love this GPS!!! I highly recommend it.

Excellent Unit for the Price.......2007-01-31

I purchased this instead of the magellen or garmin due to the price. It is an excellent unit in terms of quick response and recalculation of routes if you decide not to take a turn it suggests. This system beat Tom-Tom in terms of mapping in some of the outskirts of Connecticut where Tom Tom got lost. This one was able to discriminate betweetn towns like Sherman CT and Sherman turnpike
I did find downloads available on their site and was pleased with the software.
May want to purchase vacuum mount instead of one included in the box so it is easier to remove
Battery life without using power cord is about 2 1/2 hours, volume of unit is strong and clear

Overall very satisfied with the unit

Best $150 I ever spent.......2007-01-14

I got this as a Christmas present on black Friday from Staples for $150, and it is the best $150 I've ever spent.

I always get lost when driving to new places, but not anymore. No more getting into fights over whose fault it is that we're lost -- we never get lost anymore.

The built-in maps are astonishingly accurate. You can tell it to avoid the highway and take sidestreets if you don't want to sit on a traffic-jammed highway. You can plug in earphones and ride your bike with it, having it guide you to your destination (via a pleasant non-robotic voice).

We took this on a long road trip from SoCal to Texas, and it guided us through the most obscure, abandoned, non-civilized parts of the country without a problem. I would have been quite nervous without it. And it told us how many more hours we can expect to drive until we reached our destination (it averages your speed, the speed limit, and distance to figure this out, I think).

The only thing I wish this came with was a carrying case. I don't like to leave this criminal-magnet in my car, so I take it with me wherever I go. To protect its touch-screen, I found that the Nintendo DS carrying case (sold at Best Buy, and probably here too) fits it perfectly.

Best GPS for the price.......2006-12-26

Excellent GPS for its price. It delivers what it promises, has several features that you might not use also. With price around 200$ I dont see a reason why I should pay more $600 for anyother GPS.

I am greatly satisfied with the buy and highly recommend this for anyone who wants a handy tool to get them going

Simply amazing great GPS.......2006-12-19

This is not just a "value" product its a very solid gps with great
features. I wanted to hate it, the price was very low compared to the
other gps units with the same features so I was expecting a bad mapping,
slow response unusable features. How wrong I was, I was totally blown away
by how good this unit was. I would recommend this product to anyone!
I tried to fool it and confuse it by driving as fast as I could in the wrong
directions and at high speeds. It would quickly generate re-route paths without
freezing or creating defective routes.
Bright display, even in sunlight, new surf GPS receiver lots more sensitive
than the old receiver, easy to program. Has resent maps of freeways and
highways in my area that have changed in the last 4 months.
If you look around you can buy them for under $200.00 NEW!!!

The only thing I wish it came with was a carry case so when I'm walking around
with it, it could be Simi protected. oh ya, it's battery powered so you can carry
it down the street with you. Its good if your biking or riding the bus too!
This is not a gps for trail hiking its just for road and highway use.
