The DV-981HD is the latest incarnation in Oppo's highly aclaimed line of upconverting DVD players. It offers an HDMI interface (HDMI Specification 1.1), with HD upconversion ouput resolutions of 720p, 1080i, and full 1080p. This is Oppo's most full-featured player yet, and as such, it's not a DVD player for people with regular analogue sets. While the DV-981HD doesn't offer component output, and doesn't output standard or native resolution, it does represent one of the best (if not the best) upconverting DVD players out there, and it's perfect for people with HDTVs up to full 1080p who aren't ready to jump on the HD DVD or Blu-ray bandwagen.

Pros: 1080p, HDMI, BEST PICTURE ON MARKET.
Cons: None! But would be nice to have a GAMMA adjustment.
Bottom Line:
This is the present King of the Hill of 1080p DVD UPconverting players. There is just nothing close at the moment, and I've done some serious head on comparisons.
