Isn't that what you wanted? :-)
I'm glad to have been able to offer a suggestion that you seem to
like. I've also just realised that I can make life even more difficult
for you, and suggest another firm to look at - Sound & Vision of
Bolton (http://www.soundandvisiononline.com/). I seem to recall that
they have a poor reputation with some folk here, but I've found them
pretty good when I've used them.

I don't remember having noticed that on the high street. I've always
had the impression that mulriregion advertising was more an internet
thing. Indeed, I remember being told in one major high street chain
that multiregion hacking was illegal, and that they wouldn't touch
mulriregion machines for that reason. Needless to say, I didn't buy
from them. (That was a bit longer ago - about 1999 or 2000, I think. I
believe that they've since changed their position on the subject.)
Peter.
