Another Turkey from Samsung

Advantages: Great Blu ray playback and very cheap.
Disadvantages: DVD playback is at best unreliable and at worst non existant

The Idiot's Guide to Blu-ray

Advantages: Marked improvement on sound and picture quality, easy to set up, easy to use
Disadvantages: Only plays Region B Blu-ray and Region 2 DVD, no HDMI lead included in the box
