    Amazon have a Toshiba SD101 player which can be made multiregional by entering a code for £23 ATM.

    As for your current player, have you tried searching Google to see if a code is available?

    Must have the DVD tray open and empty
    Then press pause on the remote
    Key in 3,1,4,1,5,9
    In response to the screen prompting for region code, choose 0
    Press Pause
    Power Down
    Wait 30 secs or so
    Power up and it should be region free

    Also after you've unlocked the player, experiment with the picture format settings when playing R1 dvds.
    My dvd player has PAL (uk), NTSC (US) and Multi.
    With US dvds I can sometimes get a better picture using multi and not NTSC.
