As some of you may know, I am one of the webmasters of Area 450 which is a well-established, independent site for owners of Sampo DVD players.

Earlier this year, Sampo bought out Grundig AG due to their severe financial problems.

The upshot is that Area 450 will, slowly but surely, be incorporating Grundig DVD products into the rest of the site.

The first development is that Grundig products now feature in their own forum at the Area 450 bulletin board here

Please feel free to visit.

If you own any Grundig models (and that can include DVD players, DVD/TV combis, DVD/VCR combis and the new DVD/DigiTerrestrial receiver) and are able to take digital photographs, we would be extremely grateful for your input.

Preferably we would like front and rear shots (including a few close ups, especially the product information panel on the reverse). If anyone is extra daring we`d love some shots of the internals too.

If you can help, please contact me at clayts@area450.com

Please spread the word if you know any Grundig owners. We are slowly but surely building up a sub-site of Area 450 (called The Grundig Zone, so it fits in with the rest of Area 450), which will have detailed reports about all the Grundig products we can muster !

Thanks for listening...
