Most Sony hardware cannot by unlocked. Sony hardware either supports region free out of the box or it doesn't. Sony is a stickler for copy protection (which includes region coding). By a product that supports region free.

To make matters worse (for you anyway), most specialty units cannot be unlocked. Specialty units include portable players, auto/car players, VHS/DVD combo players, and HTIB (Home Theater in a Box).

I followed the instructions given here with a programmable remote which worked a treat for the DAV-IS10:

There are other websites out there that you can pay for a service remote to be sent to you on loan to unlock it too.
