Anyone know anything on this DVD player. I would like to get one because of it's progressive scan output capabilities. I feel that it would provide a better picture than the Toshiba SD9000, even though it is the lower model. Anyone have thoughts on this? Also, anybody know where I can get one. (I can't find anyone who has it in stock yet.)

I heard they they are shipping 6/1/99. I actually go the 3109, I like alot. My sales Rep. is pushing the SD9000. He mentioned that the 5109 wont have the same PIC quality as the SD9000 but has other nice features (i.e Dual Disk etc.) He'll let me compare 5109 SD-9000, and if I want can upgade to either model. There is a big price difference one is 449.00 (5109) and the SD9000 is $899.00

I'm not sure how the sd9000 would have a better picture quality than the SD5109 - at least on a progressive scan capable television.

Not sure when the shipping date is on the 5109. I am dying to get my hands on one too. It is being held up because of copyright issues, (see The Perfect Vision article in their new issue). Progressive scanning, which the 5109 has and the 9000 does not IS an improvement over our interlaced scanning. HOWEVER you need a tv which ALSO has progressive scan to UTILIZE IT.

Yes...that's what I thought. I just ordered the 73" Mitsubishi Widescreen 16:9 and I think that for this TV the 5109 would show a much better picture than the 9000, don't you?
