I've had good luck with Bombay Electronics, though they don't carry the
Daewoo anymore.

(They have a web pages and also sell on eBay.)

The (modified?) Philips DVD727 plays region 2 just fine.

I don't know whether it will "lock down" on a region or not: To be safe, we
only use it for region 2.

I have heard that some "region free" players will lock down on a region
just like the computers.

Best,
Karl
