same price at amazon, perhaps no tax at amazon for some folks. No usb, no hdmi.

i recommend getting the higher model with usb port. it works great with thumb drives and fat32 ext hd. it gets tiring burning stuff to cd/dvd. its about 70bux at circuit city.

Hold out for the USB. HDMI isn't such a big deal on a regular DVD player, but the USB contributes a convenience for DivX that is unparalleled. You can use jump drives, flash media with card readers, or FAT32 formatted portable hard drives.

wrong linky.

Two questions...

1. Which thumb drives work best. I have a San Disk and it seems like it hangs a lot (total restart).

2. How do you know which avi formats will work IF you burn dvds?

this plays Xvid perfectly. have one already.

I picked one up from Target about a month ago (it's currently $39.99 there!) and love it!

after buying a philips' divx player last year, i found i only used it twice a year, since i hate to burn so many discs~ if it can directly interface with an external hard drive, i probably give it a try.
