So my Bravo D1 (a hand-me-down from a friend who availed himself with an Oppo) just broke down.
And this is just after I upgraded to a 4x1 hdmi switcher from monoprice so i didn't have to switch between my pc and my upconverter (the other slot taken by my PS3) ...
Anyhoo, I know that my PS3 can upconvert really fine. I just don't want to abuse it much. Ok, granted, it doesn't really get much playing time other than blu-rays, but you get the idea. I want something I can use for everyday dvd upconversion.
I know that a lot of people are reallly into the this one:

Just a bit too much for me budget, unfortunately. I also found this:

It seems to have what I like, DivX playback, and for less than half the price. I've heard mixed reviews about it though. Nevertheless, I'm considering it.
So, any other suggestions for a cheap but good/highly recommended upconverters? Any constructive feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
