: : : Good morning,
: : : For those of you still looking for DVD players (who isn't?) for TV, here are a couple of interesting links I've found.
: : : www.epinions.com offers people's "epinions" and ratings on a wide variety of products. It's interesting reading and might help you select a product.
: : : If you are looking for a low price, a website called Best Stop Digital finds the lowest price on the web, from which you can order your DVD player.
: : : Although, I'm still taken with Kate's idea of getting one for the PC so she can grab pictures. Decisions, decisions....
: : : Cheers,

: : I went to Sears this weekend and bought a great Toshiba DVD player for $340.00 This little baby has everything!! Dolby, DTS, etc, and a great slo-mo fowards and backwards, Zoom!, and alternate angles if the dvd has that. This thing has everything for a realitively low price....GO GET IT!!!
: : Its model 3109

: Hi Norm --
: Toshiba seems to be a really good brand for DVDs at a good price. I was looking at the next one down, the 2109, which seems to get really good reviews. It's nice to know Sears carries Toshiba, because I would rather get it locally than over the web. But I do have to do my price comparisons!
: Thanks for the info.
: Cheers,

Yes, Toshiba is an excellent brand. Many years ago I bought a small Toshiba TV for my bedroom. It has had water poured down it( while it was on!!) dropped and all round roughed up. It still works like a champ. The color is still as sharp as th day I bought it. My JVC TV in the livingroom is just as old and the color is faded and all around doesn't perform as well. I have since purchased Toshiba Stereos, cassette decks and now DVD players. I'm totally sold on the Toshiba brand. Next I will buy a Toshiba sourround-sound system. This a great company with great stuff.
By the way, When does the LOTM DVD come out?
