No, I haven't bought it... First I would need
the DVD player... ;) I would
like a region-free DVD player, but now they are creating DVD's that are
unplayable on region-free DVD players. :-(
A friend of mine bought an Apex that can change regions via a menu
option. Supposed to be unlimited changes (it isn't a selling "feature" as
it is in a "hidden menu" if I have the story right). It also converts PAL
to NTSC on the fly (and does a decent job from what he has said).
I think his only complaint is that on some VCDs the audio gets out of
synch. Homemade VCDs or cheap VCDs being the biggest offenders.
I can ask him what model it is if you are interested.
