I'm about to buy my first DVD player. Choice is limited in Dublin, Ireland and particularly now with the post-Christmas sales. I want SVCD playback, MP3, Region Free and Macrovision cancelling. I'm looking at the following machines and would appreciate some kind of ranking and/or hack info from the experts here.

Philips 634
Alba 109 (or possibly 108 depending on Argos stock)
Deccavideo 2141 (can't seem to find any hack info on the web)
Cyberhome 528 (if they come back into stock at Richer Sounds)
Daewoo ST862 or DQD2100D
Digitrex GK 1100 (from Dixons in Dublin)
