The DVP S325 is a very good performer.
I purchased mine back in April, paying slightly over-the-top to have it chipped for all regions.
Since then, the machine has played faultlessly - although one DVD from Blockbuster gave it a bit of jip (it was badly scratched).
The controls are easy enough to navigate once you have figured out which button does what, on the remote control.
Picture quality is of course excellent, as is the sound quality - although it does lack Dolby 5.1
Connection was a piece of cake, via the SCART lead, and the whole kit and kaboodle was installed and working in about 3 mins!
It looks good, in a sexy black finish; it works well; it's reasonably priced - available for about 250 quid now, I believe; and it's a Sony.

I recommend it completely.
