Yep, I'd agree that the Oppo is the best standard DVD player out there (as do most of the review sites). However, when I was in the market for a DVD player I ended up getting a Toshiba HD DVD player instead, because it is a great upconverting player, plays HD DVDs too (although that format will probably eventually fade away due to Blue-Ray dominance), was cheaper, and came with a bunch of free HD movies. I think that is still the case, so you owe it to yourself to look at the Toshiba A3.
