Toshiba HD-A1 HD-DVD Player
Great unit at a fair price.
Have enjoyed greatly the clarity of the HD DVDs compared even to the up-converted standard DVDs. Better than HD thru cable. There is no question start up and commands are slow...this is a small computer with its own firmware which can be updated. Once play is selected just sit back for the best picture in the house. I run my unit thru a gefen HDMI 4x1 switcher which works very well since have 3 different HDMI inputs to my widescreen Sony 34\\" Wega CRT TV. One word of caution, do the HDMI switching BEFORE turning on the unit or else you will get an error code; no problems with the other HDMI input devices. Great presentation but the control unit is a dinosaur, I guess there had to be a reason for the difference between this and the expensive brother XA-1. At present time the best buy on the market!
