Excuse me but my repeated contention/belief on this has been that its not legal to sell region free or cross regioned DVD players in the USA, using the fact that you cant get them from any of the major U.S. retailers and the simple existance of the regioning system itself in the first place as logical reasons why. Doesnt one of those statements "facts" posted there support my repeated and current contention? jco -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Norm Baugher Sent: Friday, April 20, 2007 4:53 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: OT - for those of youwho haveDVD equipthat can playPAL systemDVD's
