OK. Here I go again.
If you are wanting an excuse to flame me for posting about this, stop reading...
If you don't need a DVD player, stop reading...
If you hate people because they jsut want to share a good deal, stop reading...
If you need one of the most highly sought after (maybe because it is rarely in stock) DVD players, take a look.
The Panny S97 is a great unit for quality DVD playing. It has a slew of features that I use, such as dialog enhancement, oodles of display and audio tweaking ability. HDMI, Component, SVideo, and Composite video outputs. And a feature I like, is it will upconvert your picture to 720p or 1080i. No this will NOT make your regular DVD into some magical "hi-def" version, and no, I don't want to start a debate on if the picture is "true" to the source. It isn't. The system uses complex algorythms to "fill in" pixels to offer a smoother image when blowing it up on a big screen TV or projection system. This technology has been around for years in the form of devices like Line Doublers, and Line Quadruplers, and the like so it is a proven tecnology that is included in this $269 DVD player. Put that on top of it being progressive scan, and you get a great picture! I've owned a rock solid Pioneer 525 in the past, I have a cheap Memorex ($25 last Christmas) player that is progressive scan, and I have used my new Dell Laptop connected up, and the picture coming out of the S97 blows them all away.
This usually runs $299 WHEN you can find it in stock, and $30 off from a reputible (one of the few left) "photo" stores on the web is a great deal.

Please no flames. If people don't want this stuff shared here, I completely respect that. I just know that there are people looking for a good DVD player, and I am trying to point out one that I like.
If you are anyway offended by this, or think that this type of post will bring down, tear apart, or devistate the great Axiom web site and the forums we all love, I appologize in advance. I don't plan to do this very often, so don't think that this will be a regular event. I would guess that at the MOST this type of post would occur a couple times a year, and I guess I used up my 2 today.
(Gee, I didn't just cut and paste this from my other post, did I? )
