I am seriously thinking of buying a Panasonic Q. I would get it from Lik-Sang and it comes fully modded (Jap/US) and with an English faceplate for the remote control. They also supply a step down convertor - FREE.
I would have to buy a Freeloader to be able to play PAL games though.
If anyone has one, what do they think? Was it worth the money? Does it play OK with a Freeloader? Do you need to get anything else with it?
Any more advice/info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Honest!

I have one.
Had problems with Sumper Monkey Ball on freeloader, but nothing else.
It's nice to have a multi-region dvd too, and it does look the nuts.
If your TV won't support an NTSC signal you'll need an NTSC to PAL convertor, for £30 to £50 for a decent enough one.
If I were thinking of buying one now, I wouldn't. The next consoles will be out in 2005 anyway, and you could spend that money better on other stuff that won't be dated so soon.

there are always some for same on ntsc-uk.com or ebay, when they say 2005 they probably mean Xmas 2005 or even 2006 so don't hold your breath !
