Ok, at the moment I am sort of leaning towards getting the LG DVD-3350E from technotronics.
It seems that every high street store carrys the earlier LG model and besides Technotronics is much better value for money (cheaper!)

Now first of all, I presume technotronics are a good company after reading their web site but I have a few questions anyway......

Will it come with all the relevant manuals?
Is their a manual for the region selector?
They say they have none in stock, if I order one will it be at my house before xmas or after, given they have none in stock.
Lets say I put my sky digital decoder on top of it cause of lack of space. Will there be any electrical interference?

...and one final question..........

This `fix` that they put so you can select the region. I believe that because you can select the region, so it can be 1 or 2, you wont have a problem with dvds like the patriot where it detects if its multi region.
Obviously this is not multi region but would a problem arise anyway?

I know its asking a lot but to buy something like this is a big step given that its a lot of money but you seem to all be really helpful and so I would really appreciate it if you could help me!

thanks!

2 more questions.......

due to it being fairly new I presume it wont have any problems with...................

1) Viewing a disc which has multiple angles
2) A disc which uses branching techniques to view extra footage etc..

First of all, do you need an onboard Dolby Digital decoder?

If the answer is no, then get yourself an Aiwa 370, its a 3350 without the decoder bits!

(and yes, it IS a 3350 with no components on the Dolby decoder side before anyone shouts it aint!)

And if ya want one of these, email me.. I have a supplier who can have it with ya before the weekend!


AIWA 370 (officially) ROCKS!!!!!!
