Panasonic DVD-S35K Ultra Slim Progressive Scan DVD
Broke down right after warranty expired
I am so disappointed in my S35 player.  I bought it in April of 2003 and had no problems whatsoever, then in July of 2004 the \\"laser\\" went out and showed \\"No Disc\\" on the display screen everytime a disc was inserted.  According to an authorized Panasonic dealer that I contacted this \\"laser\\" would cost me a few Hundered dollars to replace, even though the player itself cost only $90.  It's awful that big name companies are allowed to do this to thier consumers who go to them expecting quality products, not a wild goose chase, or a loss of hundreds of dollars for a simple piece of equipment.   <br />I would have been better off buying the no name player my friend got for $20 at the swap meet......at least his still plays  :(
