[slinkelist] New DVD 300 disc players...

[Peter Elliot]

Hi,

The interesting socket is not the Control-S socket but the one labeled Mega
Control...

See
http://www.crutchfield.com/cgi-bin/S-a67LPFvlesu/prodpic.asp?pp=28012&i=158D
VX870D&o=M&a=0&display=XL

I'm not hopeful, but maybe this could be a Control AI/II socket.

Regards

PJE
