CyberHome CH-DVD 500 Progressive-Scan DVD Player
will die in 16 months, otherwise, great features.
Buy at your own risk. I got it since it was multi-region, great output options etc'. and it really was great in all other usability terms. However, Cyberhome sells bad quality. I know of 3 friends of mine that had CH and the unit stopped loading DVDs after less then 12-16 months. I thought I am ok since I had this 500 model, and they had the 300... no luck. <br />I got it sep-04, it was pronounced dead on apr-05... that is just 1.5 years of life time, which apears to be the going rate for Cyberhome.  <br /> <br />here is the reply I got from them when I complained: <br />\\"''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' <br />Sir, we appologize for the inconvenience and do really wich that you are under warranty but policy is policy and we have to be fair to everybody as well.  Since we do not offer any refunds and we no longer have any parts or unit for this model.  You would need to get it repaired possibly at a local repair shop.  Once again, we appologize for the inconveneince. <br /> <br />regards, <br />jerry <br />CSD <br />\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\"\\" <br /> <br />good luck.
