Title: Cheap... but not much more.
Product review: Pros:- Cheap- Reads recordable DVDs (not Divx)- Reads both NTSC and PAL formatsCons:- Remote control has narrow range and sluggish responsiveness. Buttons are inconveniently organized and confusing.- Loading slightly dirty DVDs is painfully slow- Occasional glitches when playing DVDs (even new ones).- Reading high resolution JPEGs is slow and slideshow mode is unpleasantly choppy (screen goes blank while the next image is read).- Instruction manual is barely usable- Waking the unit from standby must be done via the remote control.Bottom line:Although the cheap price tag might be attractive, I would personally recommend against purchasing this product. Using this DVD player, even for the basic user who doesn't require any extra features, is frustrating and does not provide the simple "just-works" comfort you'd expect from a consumer product.
