what type of philips dvd player was it?

It was this one Philips

It's a good budget up-converting HDMI DVD player. It also has USB JPG and MPG support.

has more then that. You can attached an external HD to it and play xvid, divx, mpg, and more I have a 500 gb drive on mine.

Cool, I will have to give that a try. I have a 160 gb external just sittin here. Though, I will probably only use it for pics and mp3's.

EDIT: I will probably be taking this DVD player back. I watched a DVD with it yesterday and it appears to squish the picture slightly (larger black bar on the bottom of screen than the top). I also couldn't get it to pass-through DTS though the DD worked fine. There are tons of threads online about it and I did check the firmware (mine is the latest). I just don't have time to play with this. I need a DVD player that just works the way it should. My old Panasonic 5 disc Progressive scan is working fine, and I really didn't notice much (if any) difference in PQ. I will probably take this back and get a Oppo 970 online instead (or just wait for my Panny to die or HD to come down in price). The USB features are neat, but not something I will really use. I have become sort of anal about my PQ/SQ these days, so playing a bunch of content off of a hard drive just doesn't appeal to me.

My Circuit City was already practically cleaned out of the $3.99 titles this morning.

not to mention theres a region hack available. although, im not sure we can talk about that on here.....

I went Sunday morning and they had crap in the 3.99 bin. I found several of the 3.99 titles I wanted in the regular racks and they rang up at 3.99.

i got mr. deeds for 99 cents after using one of my $3 dvd cash (from monster house, talladega nights, da vinci code, and all the king's men se).

I got there when they opened, and people ran to the bin. People were being cool though, grabbing a stack of one movie and asking if anyone needed whatever they had. Organized chaos.

All I wanted were A Knight's Tale and Jurassic Park. Jurassic Park was nowhere to be seen, but they had a ton of A Knight's Tale copies lying around.

Ummm, I didn't know about this dvdcash until you mentioned it. I went right over to my Davinci code and whatya know, a $3 coupon. OK, now I'm kinda excited. Is there a list out there of the movies which include this cash?

Thanks

EDIT: Just found another one in Monster House

you might want to check http://www.sonypictures.com (columbia pictures) for the complete list.

Got Saw 3 and Mr. Deeds for $3.99 each today and tried to get GTA: Vice City Stores for PS2 at 2:00 PM and they didn't have any in stock so I got a $20 gift card! I walked right next door and bought it from Gamestop for $5 more, but that's ok.

I meant Saw 2

Picked up the following today:

Carlito's Way $3.99
Mr Deeds .99 (after dvdcash)

Anyone found Stuck on You in widescreen at their CC? I checked two and called another and all they have are lots of full screen copies. Best Buy doesn't seem to carry it at all so no pricematch possibility there.

In case anyone was wondering. The Professional version at CC is full screen. I learned that there is a widescreen version but it is called Leon The Professional. I was able to get Best Buy to price match with CC so I could get the widescreen Leon version instead.

Did anyone get the Peter Pan exclusive CD-ROM? My CC didn't have any.

Which version of Leon? The two disc deluxe or the single disc? Either way it's a good deal as long as it's the uncut version. I mentioned it before, but the US version Circuit City has isn't worth watching.

Thanks for the list alfredog, but I was referring to a list of the movies which have the $3 certificates inside them. I found two so far, just would be nice to know which others have it.

i saw sense and sensibility at my local target store yesterday for $5.50 ($2.50 after using $3 dvd cash). you might want to check your local target as well if $2.50 is a good deal for you. i can't really remember the other $5.50 dvds but there were a number of them.

Picked up the following today:

The Forgotten $1 (after $3 dvdcash)
The One SE $4 (blind buy, I have been meaning to watch this)
