I just found out I am going to get "surprised" with a gifit of a Sony DVP-NC85H DVD player for the holidays. The few reviews I have been able to find seem to indicate it is not a bad player but I thought I'd ask if anyone could share their experiences with it. It is an HDMI player and I am wondering if it is worth taking my main HT apart to install this on my HDTV. I currently have pretty basic single disc Sony hooked so I figure this should be a upgrade. I have also included some of the specs so those who are tech minded than myself can tell me where these rank. Thanks in advance for any info.
