    I am over in the US and want to buy a cheap portable DVD which I can use my UK DVD's on. Can anybody recommend one which can be easily hacked to play both. I'm looking at the $200 to $300 DVD players.

    Cheers

    Tony

    What I was hoping to do was get one from Frys or Best Buy, or one of the other big stores where it is possible to hack the region code. Aren't there a number where the region code can be set using a code on the remote? I was hoping to use it on the flight back home, which kind of rules out ordering one from Hong Kong. Bonus points go to anybody who can recommend one which is capable of playing DivX files.

    Cheers for the info though.
