I am about to leave for:
6am
Circuit City
Free after rebate:
- VTech phone (I needed a new phone battery for my cordless phone and it was $15 or so, so I'm just going to store my phone away )
- Lava lamp - purple
- Really nice camera bag, which I badly needed. Leather or faux leather.
- 68 DVD Rack
- 64-CD holder
6:30am
Target
$13.85 After tax Sleeping Beauty Special Edition
7:00am
OfficeMax
- 2 X $25 162-DVD towers
- Free after rebate phone (for mom)
- $4.99 after rebate shredder (which I needed as I'm about to go through every single paper in the house and throw/shred as much as I can)
- $20 after rebate leather chair with armrest - these sold out quickly
- 4 X $5 popcorn Christmas tins for gifts
- Full price ~$1.50 cherry Coke
I decided it was a good day's work and came home (just got in... I was in the OfficeMax line for what felt like an hour... it was definitely over 40 minutes because it's 8:30am and it only takes 10 minutes to get there and to come back and about another 20 minutes browsing).

power up with no disc in it. press menu 1,9
then a startup screen should come up 3rd from the bottom should be region 1 go over where it says that then press enter then 0
It took a couple of times from mine to stick so what i did was re enter the 2 things under it which i think is a pw thing just like they have it.
Then go to the setup button on the remote move it where is says video then your see ntsc(or some thing like that click on it and make it say auto which you can now play pal disc on your tv becasue the dvd player does all the work.
Please post back and let me know how it goes.

Didn't see anything spectacular in the sales papers, so I slept until noon! The only thing I really want right now is a high quality katana, wakizashi, and tanto, and I seem to never find them at the mall.

I avoided retail locations like the plague - of course I was on the road today from Texas to Louisiana so that helped! Besides, 12/2's gonna be an expensive day with Alien Quad, Pirates OTC, Ben Stiller Show, and To Live & Die in L.A.!!! Yay Tuesday and my BB Reward Zone card!

To those of you who bought Cyberhome players today, use the unit sparingly and NOT as your primary DVD player and it works quite well as a multi-region player.
It can be mighty finicky if you use it as your main player.
Just my two pennies.......
and now back to the regular program......
