Mutli-region DVD playback from Blu-ray players?

[admin_exported]

Simple request... I currently have a library of DVDs which is mixed regions 1 and 2. I am keen to upgrade to a Blu-ray player when I upgrade to a Pana 42PZ85 or Pioneer 4280XD (my 12 year old 29" Sony CRT is taking up too much space), but have been unable to find out if any Blu-ray players offer multi-region DVD playback (I'll worry about multi-region Blu-ray later). Am I stuck with having to use two sources for DVD playback? Any thoughts? Thanks!

Try a search for multiregion blu-ray and you'll find a whole stack of posts on this subject

And if you do a Google search for the Blu-ray player you're tempted by, you'll find plenty of retailers advertising multi-region models (for DVD).
