Just bought one. 44 bucks shipped for this dvd player is a heck of a deal. The phillips was selling for 69 at wallmart yesterday.

i have the philips 642 and the new lg HDMI player (they're virtually identical internally, except the lg obviously has HDMI, and a memory card reader for still pics...)
both are excellent players. play divx's, xvids, any version, sacd's, DVD's, read dvd-r's, +r's, no problems anywhere. remotes are responsive, subtitles work great, players are quiet and solidly built. consistent framerates, picture quality and sound across the board.
get a norcent for 45 or a philips for 69. but I can guarantee you'll be 100% satisfied with the philips.
