Probably best to be patient with them.....wouldn't want them rushing out a botched product, y'know?

At Kmart we have $198 players, made by sylvania.

I never liked the Sylvania players, they all loaded REALLY slow. I did buy my father a $199 Magnavox player though at Wal-Mart and it seems pretty nice. Loads much faster than the Sylvania player my friend bought. Im thinking of getting a Vizio player if its any good when it comes out as my bedroom BD.

Same here. That goes for a 37" Vizo as well.

I saw the Vizio player today at walmart for $186. It didn't have the 7.1 analogs and I didn't care for the disc tray design.

just bought this off ebay for $99.95 brand new Dlvd. I will use it in the bedroom. To good of a price to pass up for a bedroom player IMHO..

I was going to pick up he maganvox for $98 at walmart but I am hoping the Vizio is a little better...

I thought so. The guy on Ebay has only 2 left at that price. Just plug in Vizio VBR 100 and his auction pops up. He has 100% perfect feedback and has sold a bunch of different BD players. So I felt good buying from him plus with paypal I dont worry.

Plus with the free shipping it was to good to pass up IMHO.

I have no clue how he is making money on this with the free shipping.
