Getting wired for the U.S. and Italy!!!

As to buying a DVD player in the USA, I've seen them advertised on sale
for as low as $19.95US. HOWEVER these are going to be region 1
machines, and will refuse to play region 2 discs that you bring over
from Europe. It is possible to find a multi region machine, where the
coding has been 'hacked' so that they will play any disc, but I don't
get involved with those.

You can often see portable DVD players on eBay, which run on any power
source, play any disk, and do it to any TV system.
