Up-Conversion HD-DVD Player

Nope. I plan on getting one with the add-on hd-dvd player though. But that's not for the living room that'll be for my personal room.

Bought a Samsung DVD-HD860 1080i Upconvert dvd player to test out. First thing out the box was that it came with NO components which I thought it would at least come with. Turned it on with a/v's that it came with only, looked like ***. Friend came over with his components & hdmi cable. Hooked up the hdmi cable, and this thing looks TONS better. Watched King Kong, The Incredibles, Troy, Spider-Man 2. All 4 movies looked satisfiying, really nice. I'm pleased so far. But i'm doing some further testing, vs the Oppo 970HD 1080i upconversion, and a regular dvd player on components. I don't know about the oppo 970hd, it ONLY comes in silver which I do not like. The Samsung Black/Silver Trim matches the tv perfectly and is really slick. I also plan on borrowing my friends philips upconversion player just to compare also.

Ah well I bought a upconversion player not a hd-dvd player. It's doing good. I decided I'm going to just keep this. Matches my tv very well.

One of the most important things is that it matches your TV style wise...

Has your speakers ever nagged at you? Or made you do something you didn't want to do? Do you have to buy it flowers if you make it mad?
