Hi, Just purchased a 42" plasma tv Home Cinema System from Skybuy. One problem... Sky have plastered their name over all the parts, so I can't tell what the actual make of DVD player it is using. Most of my DVD's are US region 1, which the Sky DVD player just throws back out! If I can't find...

I'm seeking to upgrade to Sky Plus, but every time I contact their 'simply divine' customer services, I'm quoted a different figure as to how much it will cost to purchase and install. Can anybody here give better clarification on this issue? Many thanks.
