If you're happy to buy online, you might take a look at Superfi
(http://www.superfi.co.uk). They have several that they explicitly
advertise as multiregion. I've bought quite a bit of stuff from them
over the years (including my multiregion DVD player), and always been
very happy with their service.

(As an example of their service, I'll tell you about my CD player. I
decided what player I wanted - a Marantz - and ordered it from them.
It arrived... but didn't work properly. I phoned them up, and they
were good as gold about it. I returned it to them, at their expense,
and they sent a replacement very quickly. They must have had a bad
batch, because the second and third players were also faulty. They got
the message at this point, and tested the fourth one before it left
the shop. It worked fine. Oh, and they dropped their price after I
placed my order, but I got the lower price as well.)
