The player is apparently very easy to hack as well (just a remote code)]]>Jan 29th 2007 7:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/Jan 29th 2007 5:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
The UK is NOT just England - it includes England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales

Great Britain is England, Scotland and Wales

Please use the terms correctly - ASDA has stores in all four nations of the UK, which all use the same currency, the Great British Pound.]]>Jan 29th 2007 5:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
Thanks though.]]>Jan 29th 2007 2:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
as for the story, I agree with the poster above, the Americans really need to learn the difference between London, England, Britain & UK

and the story is actually wrong:
"plans to start selling the Durabrand DVD player for just £9"
the were selling them at that price for 4 days only, today is the last day

for anyone in the UK, keep an eye on hotukdeals.com which is updated many times a day with great offers and codes for loads of retailers and online stores (this DVD player was on there the day before the price reduction)]]>Jan 29th 2007 6:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/Jan 29th 2007 6:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
Verdict - Great DVD player, plays every dvd i can though at it, and is REALLY small compared to other dvd players for anywhere near this price!

9/10

Though, we didn't really need it, we already have a dvd player in every room! :P

fLUx

P.s. how long you reckon till HD-DVD players are this price?? LMAO]]>Jan 29th 2007 6:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
Great price, but most probably something illegal. I know a few brands sold at CostCo got in hot waters when they sold DVD players for less than $30 when big manufacturers complained they were paying that in licences alone.]]>Jan 29th 2007 6:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
I just bought a "Nova" tiny DVD player that has

- DIVX /WMA playback
- MP3 playback
- full tuner
- component and s-video out
- DVD-everything compatibility
- no region coding
- component cables included (!!!!)

at a XS Cargo shop in Vancouver for $24.99 Cdn dollars. Works like a charm, and if you can believe it, it's a replacement for a $650 LG DVD-R HD (250gb) unit, which I'm ready to chuck because the stupid thing only plays about 1/3 of my DVDs (as in bought for, legal DVDs).

The new $25 player has no problem with any of my discs.]]>Jan 29th 2007 6:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/Jan 29th 2007 7:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/don't forget we live in "rip off Britain" where prices on everything are higher to start with, then VAT is added]]>Jan 29th 2007 9:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
I'd save my £9 toward a decent player... Or spend it on 20 bottles of lager.]]>Jan 29th 2007 7:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/Jan 29th 2007 8:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/Jan 29th 2007 9:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/Jan 31st 2007 5:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/Jan 29th 2007 10:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/crazy-cheap-dvd-player-to-be-sold-in-england-for-under-18/
