Kiss DP-500 vs. XBox for MP3

["Jon Payne" <jgpayne@xxxxxxx>]

I'll be interested to here peoples opinions after the event (unfortunately
I
can't make it) on the Kiss DP-500...

My main use will be for playing my MP3s (320kbits rips of my CD collection)
and if I go for the Kiss DP-500 for playing DVDs as normal (replacing my
current DVD player).

I'm delaying buying an Xbox at the moment which I was going to use for MP3
playback...   it all depends on the on-screen display really, if the
DP500's
is ok then I'll go for that because it means one less box underneath the
TV,
if not then I'll go the XBox route...

Any opinions yet? :-)

Thanks v.much,
Jon
