Denon DVD5910 1080p upgrade? anyone have it?

Thanks Braro,
I just do not think the hi-res formats will take off.
The Denon for me,is so I have the 'top of the line' DVD player to play DVDs.
Certainly in five years the hi res may be sorted out, and a player would be in order. But they would NOT play a standard res DVD better than my 5910.
I have a Pioneer LD-2 Laserdisc player. The output sucks comepared to DVD, until I turn on the Sony Plasma 4x density, then the LD's look pretty good. (The severe grainyness is gone!)
And I suppose in a few years I would get a 60" 1980x1000 pixel tv with ...?
Anyway, the Denon does a god job now, and I hope will continue to do so for the 600 DVDs I have no plans on replacing with Hd or blu-ray
(like the 100 or so Laserdiscs that I can't replace with DVDs. I keep two LD players around. The LD-2 and a 3070.)

That's why I bought an Oppo player for $200 and its picture is better than that of the Denon 3910 that I used to own. My advise is not to spend too much money on DVD players as they might become obsolete once HD-DVD/Blue Ray takes off.

I recently spoke to a Denon representative and he thinks Denon will keep the 5910 in it's lineup after they bring out a new Blu-Ray or Hi Def player because it is so good and is a universal player. I have considered one for myself.

I'm not a techie. I just want to know if it's worth buying this dvd player, and if I can buy a region-free version of it. i just spoke to a tech person of usa denon and he told me that all the dvd players in usa is required to be region 1. Is there a possibility of getting a region-free from other countries (from europe?) or they simply don't manufacture it.

How about modifying it. Is it worth the risk?
Thanks.
