My new toy:

Philips DVP642 Divx player. I tested Top Gear on a DVDRW and I am stunned by the superb quality. Good thing is that it only cost me $50USD

That looks exactly the same as mine, although I can't remember the model number that mine is... It's great though, being able to fit a whole season of TG onto one DVD.

I have started to have a problem recently though, where when playing DivX files, there's vertical bars on the screen... sort of semi transparent, but still noticeable... images/smilies/sad.gif

Solid choice. I'm thinking about getting another one for my mom. I paid $59 for mine a few months back. Where'd you buy yours?
