This machine confirmed my fears 100%. This thing is slow, taking nearky a minute for the empty tray to open, and another minute before the disc menu to show.

That means, a movie I bought in October may not be viewable until December ...

I took a plunge on this player after seeing it advertised for an irresistibly low price through an internet mail-order vendor. Here are a few words about my experiences with this player so far (applies to the latest firmware revision which I downloaded and installed via USB memory stick) - * I'm using the Sharp's analog 5.1 audio outputs ...
