Michel, as Paul(gman)pointed out, one advantage of the HDMI connection is that it only involves one cable, instead of the three for a component connection. Another theoretical advantage is that it keeps the information digital all the way instead of requiring conversion to analog and back to digital, as in component. This may or may not actually slightly improve picture and/or sound, since modern converters work extremely well. The S97 is a fine player, and a good buy, but not better than everything else on the market, if that's what you were asking.

Thanks John,
I don't know if it's only them or if it's Panasonic but I phoned my supplier today and asked about the S97 and I was told it's been discontinued. I was surprised to ear this since I tought it was a fairly new product..
There are still some floor units available but honestly, I prefer in that case to spend some time and try to find another unit that is actually a hot and active product..
Any recommendations for a good DVD player and also for a good projector screen are more than welcome..

Im pretty sure that it is not being discontinued. there was a period where there was none available about a month or two ago. but now they are back in stock everywhere. infact they just did a full review over at audioholics.
