Hi Gary

Could you please confirm the following:

1. I seem to remember reading somewhere that the region free would be automatic for DVD and manual for Blu-ray. Is that incorrect?

2. I assume that all the output formats mentioned above as available from HD-SDI are also available on HDMI. Is that correct?

3. Any confirmed date for availability of region free?

Thanks
