i see you can already pre-order the DVD on play.com for only £9.99 delivered.
great deal i think.
and RRP is only £12.99
well done 4ad for keeping the price down.

edit: it's also at hmv.co.uk for £11.99, amazon.co.uk for £9.49 and virgin megastores for £12.99

Now all we need is an American site like Amazon to take pre-orders. However they have all yet to even hear of it.

Question. Will there be any differences between the Euro and US releases of the DVD? Even in packaging like there was with DTTP. Play.com said the release date was 3/5, is that just the pre order date? And finally to Euro Region II and multi-region dvd's play in the US?

Just looked at Circuit City and Best Buy online; CC listed the price as $15.99, BB as $17.99. I think that's pretty good- I was afraid it was gonna be between $25- $45.

everything will be the same, it's regionally encoded 0, (ie you can watch it anywhere) - the only difference is the actual format, which is NTSC, rather than PAL.

Here's a helpful link that'll help... if you have a multi region player, you'd still need to make sure it can play NTSC and PAL to be able to play both kinds of DVD (if you did so require)

I think your TV set also has to be able to play NTSC and PAL, not only the DVD player. Most modern TV's can play both, my old one cannot...

why go to amazon when play is chaeaper and has free delivery?

but the dvd play.com is refering to is a R2 dvd, so that's not multi region, but I think Jo said that it's R0, but I'm not taking the chance.

And do they ship to Europe too? (not only UK I mean, which is technically europe)

there is no Region 2 version - everything is Region 0, so you'll be fine - and even if you weren't, theres so many DVD hacks out there to all-regions your player, you'd be ok - here's a good hack link anyway - http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdhacks.php

but we've definitely only manufactured the one Region 0 version - in PAL and NTSC.
