No swap trick required. Just released today. Hope to have mine installed by mid-next week. I'll report on how it works.

I was hoping for a mod chip that would allow us to play Region 2 movies on the PS2. Note that Sony is going to be very aggresive about Mod Chips for games. I don't know how they are planning to do it though. Perhaps the updates built into new games may be one way. I guess we will see.

Ok. Finally got the Neo2 chip installed. Results have been iffy. I've not had success with playing backups of my EA sports titles (which is half of everything I have! - Tiger Woods, Madden, SSX, NHL, Fifa). I have had success with Starfighter, Ridge Racer, Final Four, & Unreal Tournament. Timing is an issue on the EA sports titles and I may just be failing to get it right.
It's not the complete solution but I sure as hell feel better about it spinning a 20 cent cdrom as opposed to a 50 original in light of the many laser scratching issues, etc.
