Reviews of the Samsung DVD-HD960

CNET Review
The Good: Mostly solid image quality; upconverts to 720p, 1080i, and 1080p via HDMI; simple aspect ratio control; DivX compatibility; stylish design.
The Bad: Some ghosting issues; no high-resolution audio support or media card slots.
The Bottom Line: While the stylish Samsung DVD-HD960 isn't perfect, it is one of the first players to offer 1080p upconversion, and its image quality will satisfy just about everybody.
