is A200 final release changed from sigma 865x to 8643?
if yes i guess both C200 and A200 are same class then

What's the bulk price for this? Ex-Penang?

no local price for C200?

I not sure if I can disclose how I ordered it here, but from what I heard, PCH (or Syabas) is opening a retail store in Gurney Plaza soon.

You can always get Sony BDU-X10S for RM200++
this one confirmed to be compatible based on the C200 compatibility list
unless you want one with faster read speed you can get it from this thread
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...99900&hl=bluray
jlsinbad bought one for his C200 and working so far
(with some patch to make it region free)

my C200 touch down safely this afternoon, havent set it up.
I was shocked to look at the huge packing box >.<"

Just in time for a CNY and for you to do a full review so that we will know how much ang pow money to allocate for it?

So, do you get tax on the item? Can pm me how you order?

Bro, did you get the A200 yet?..OK or not that set?

some review on c200....

Whilst all this looks amazing on paper, the problems have come from a most unexpected angle. The Sigma / Syabas combination almost invented this whole market so it was a massive surprise when the C-200 was released and the firmware implementation was poor. We suggest you check out the Syabas C-200 forum (link below) but the months since launch have seen an unrelenting stream of software problems. Full HD-Audio is still not working, CD playback is buggy, streaming performance is poor, the user interface is unimpressive, ...the list goes on. As of 16-Dec everyone seems to be looking towards the (no date announced) release of the next Sigma SDK firmware for a solution. This seems likely about March.

err...you've forgot to give link?

haha i just copy n paste from the link. the full review is here http://www.iboum.com/pr/PH200.php u can find other models too.

still figuring how to set-up the player with my hdd. will put my samsung 1.5TB into it 1st util I get a BDRom which I dun think so fast


Sadly, the ordered A200s no sight yet along with USB Wifi dongles.
Only the C200 arrived.

Yes I read thru alot of those, the firmware seems like very rushed to the market and thus introducing all sort of bugs. Do hope that this will be solve asap.
I believe on March, there will be new model coming out, similar to C200.

yup for u guys sake i hope they solve it fast or else will become another acryan. nato only

still downloading the latest firmware dated 29/Jan.
1st impression with the stock firmware is BAD.

my 7209 2012 mkv doesnot play (WDTV1 plays flawressly), FLAC dead (Known issue, rectified by latest firmware I think), my paranormal activity 720p plays with no audio thru the stereo RCA connection (testing in my work table, no HDMI TV and no AVR that does decoding) and let's keep my finger cross while downloading the FW, seems forever, bladdy slow connection today.


Anyway, here's a few shots on the current 'set-ups.


The size of the actual box against typical typist chair


connected to my dell 27" via component @ 1080i 60Hz


C200, IcyDock & the remote.


The remote, good quality

Please do a review on the A200 as well, I want to get a player with Sigma chip, but BD1 is too expensive and WDTVLive too simple...A200 fits the bill nicely...I hope

my 2 units of A200 arrived in Pg now, need to arrange to collect it either tonight or tmr.

Tonight I will connect the C200 and hopefully A200 to my LCD and try there.

u bought both c200 n a200? goodness....

I bought 1 x C200 for own use (after reading the woohaa on the player mah) then bought 2 x A200, one for office, one for friend.

Wow! No HD audio bitstream and no downmix? KENG!!!
