Advantages: Compact. Easy to set up. Cheap.
Disadvantages: None.

Another electical item bites the dust - our old Hikona DVD player that was never very good from the day we bought it but somehow scaped through a years use to finally go caput a few days out of guarantee. So I bought the Cyber Home from Amazon and it only cost me £19.99 with free delivery which was super fast. I ordered it on Sunday night and it was here 9 am Tuesday morning.

The instruction manual is very very good. Everything is clearly explained with diagrams I can ... Read review

...my previous review of my Samsung 32 " LCD TV I also attained this DVD player at the same time. Here is my impression of this DVD player however be warned like my LCD TV review I will not be explaining every technical detail this TV has to offer rather I'll be looking at how it works on a day to day basis. *** Appearance *** This DVD player does appear sleek if a little wide. It is thin in height. It is a grey, metallic colour. It is quite long ...
...this DVD player. *** Samsung EZ View Letterbox Eliminator *** What a name! No unfortunately this DVD player does not also deliver your mail.
