Ripped from our friends over at FW... Credit goes to mychaluva. Dunno why this hasn't really been posted (at least in detail) here but here it is!
Buy.com currently has the Norcent DP-501M DVD player (rebagged Lite-On LVD-2001) for 69.99 shipped.
Linky
What makes this deal toasty is that it can upscale to 720p or 1080i over component. Supposedly MP4 content (DiVX, xvid, etc.) looks awesome upscaled on the unit. Granted, it won't be the best upscale DVD player you can get when compared to the higher priced $200+ models out there. But for 70 bucks, it does a damn fine job from the reviews that people are giving it. In fact, I think there isn't really any upconvert DVD player available in the market for under 150.
