Samsung DVD-S221 DVD Player
What a surprise!
I neither wanted nor needed another DVD player.  I already have three.  But this player was part of a rebate offer for the Samsung phone that I bought.  What a surprise I got when I received this thing!  I was expecting a cheap DVD player.  This is not.  This is a very decent quality player for, if you actually paid for it, a good price.  The remote control is intuitively designed and the picture and sound quality is better than average.  The only major gripe I have about it is that the video quality is just a bit jagged, like a Photoshop picture that's been sharpened too much.  I'm still a diehard fan of Pioneer video products, but I'm going to keep my eye on Samsung.  It's the company with the momentum.  I originally planned to sell this player as soon as I got it.  But it appears that I will be keeping it after all.
