My price range is 250 RMB or less, and I'll even throw in some extra money for a spare battery/repairs.
While I don't know about DVD players, on several occasions I've been tempted to pick up one of the small Fujitsu Lifebooks over there (I use a big one for work and it's a fabulous computer) for y800 along with an extra battery for 150, chalk it full of downloads, give it to someone in the US, and then fly back here on a better airline (i.e. one with AVOD) or at least a UA 777 (I do this anyway). I also recommend Ambien and even reading.
BTW, I didn't realize you were still around. Drop me a line some time.
