Toshiba SD-3980 Progressive-Scan DVD Player
slim & good-looking, but don't take her home
Slim, nice looking, and -- apart from an obviously slow chip inside -- a great price.   But there's a good reason not to take this DVD player like this home. <br /> <br />With each passing week, it began to skip, pause, and fail to load ever more frequently.  It tried to pass the buck with a 'bAd disc' error.  But now I've had enough -- just in time for the limited 90-day warranty to expire. <br /> <br />Some states (MA is one) have a longer Implied Warranty to prevent this kind of stuff, so if you're like me, it may be worth contacting Toshiba at customer_service@tacp.com or 866-583-7353. <br /> <br />For the rest of you, do yourself a favor and buy something else.
