Free Samsung DVDM105 in Sheffield

ebony.branch (Elite) posted this on Thursday, 16th August 2001, 13:45

Martin Dawes in Sheffield Centre (next to Lush, opposite WH Smiths) is giving away a free Samsung DVDM105 to anyone who signs up for a 12 month 1-2-1 contract. My girlfriend and I have both taken the offer; we`re planning to keep one player and sell the other to pay the phone charges.

just thought I`d let you all know.

Incidentally, does anyone know where I can read a decent review of the 105? Or can anyone tell me anything interesting about it? I`ve been trawling the forum for hacks, and I can`t wait to get to grips with me new gadget when I comes (there is a 14 day wait).

You do have to sign up to the Precept 200 tariff for at least one month of your annual contract, but you can change it back to a cheaper tariff after that, and there are free phones available as well as ones you have to pay for. Alternatively, if you don`t want to sign up for Precept, there is a charge of £30 for the DVD player if you opt for a cheaper tariff.

The only catch is that I`m still waiting for my player to turn up - apparently the rush to snap up this offer has meant that they have no 105s in stock at the moment - Samsung are due to deliver a batch next week.

I`ll report back if I experience any problems, but I have a receipt from Martin Dawes promising me a DVD player as soon as they have them back in stock.

Incidentally, does anyone know of a macrovision hack for the 105?

Blockbuster were doing a deal like this too... I took out a contract. Anyway and the player is good, Phone is good, But the network is s***e.... One2One that is.


Dont be too hasty, If you look around you can get a deal with a nice 28in nicam TV for a phone on contract. One2One Or Orange

There`s no Macrovision hack for the 105 I`m afraid - Samsung had their wrist slapped when Macrovision found out about the 709 hack. You`ll need to use an external Macrovision stripper.
