Samsung DVD-P401 Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Bang for the Buck  - Some Issues
This is my first DVD player - looked long and hard for progressive because I have recently purchased Sony XBR-400 - 36\\" (WOW) and wanted to take full advantage of its capabilities. I agree that the load time seems slow, but what's 30 seconds when you're getting ready to watch a movie! Otherwise, the unit delivers, I've played many DVD's so far and none have had issues, Gladiator looks spectacular. For the money, I would highly recommend this unit. I have not used nor care for any of the other features. When I purchased (2 months ago) this was the only sub-200 true progressive player out there. (3:2 pull down and all). Worth the money considering the cheapest of the cheapest are only 80 dollars less!  *****<BR>*****Update, I now have had many issues with load time, It seems to take an increaingly long time to load a disk and sometimes even errors out saying that there is no disk loaded!!!  All my DVD's are brand new out of the box and clean, I've had many problems with new Disney DVD's in particular.  I'm debating wether to send it back.
