oppo a winner:
Easy to set up--easy to use and navigate--upscaling fine but not HD--best part is the increase in sound quality--had an older pioneer universal player that worked fine but wanted to get rid of wires (hdmi) and see how upscaling worked--the sound of the oppo is crisp, clear and full--am very happy I went with 980. Don't see any problem with the tray (mentioned by some) or with remote

Overall nothing in this price range compares. Only issue was programming remote into universal, as universal did not have OPPO as a selection (JVC worked most of the controls).
Great Player!:
Great Player! Coverts all my DVD's to an awesome resolution on my 52" LCD tv screen! LOVE IT! Great Buy! Definitely close to same quality as blu ray for an even better price! Highly recommend! OPPO is an awesome brand. Will seriously buy this brand name again!

An example of where the Oppo really cleans house is Chinese/Korean historical shows with thatch roofed dwellings. The thatch is sharp and well defined with the Oppo, where the Faroujda chip... more info
