It actually seems a futile move vern as the 3350 is not much of an upgrade and has the same problem discs, also this years player`s are all being released in a month or 2 with new features.

seems a bit daft just for a decoder and last play feature?

>"seems a bit daft just for a decoder and last play feature?"

couldn`t care less about the decoder Dukester, and the trick-play features are just flukey and luck.

It`s actually cause it`s a macro disabled unit! :o)

And yeah Vern...it`s gone!! ::sniff::

But I`ll still be around and into the aiwa stuff! ;o)

Might even buy a black one for a spare....

There are definitely new LG`s in the pipeline, but I think they held them off due to the popularity of the 3350.

From what I can gather, they may NOT be hackable, and one will carry a CDR unit.
Can`t see the point of that other than:

1) Replace your hifi CD player with the DVD unit
2) Guarantees CDR/CDRW compatibility.

Dunno about Aiwa, but I`d assume they got a couple in the pipelines too

Jimbo the reason LG are releasing one with a CDR unit is because LG have struck a partnership with Hitachi, and HItachi already have a CDR hybrid.

also

Watch out Clayts is on his way........... I wonder how much time he spends each night looking through all the threads and doing his job as a mod, I`d be interested to know plus servicing his glorious web site, must take him ages...........

I think in Australia LG already have the CDR unit on sale, could be wrong but I`m sure I`ve seen this before, looked as hideous as the 3350 !

is it me or don`t they make players to look smokey anymore I mean why bother with putting controls on the front when we all use the bleeding remote !!??!!

besides LG rocks and Dukey boy knows it !
