Nope. It would be nice if they do though.

Probably obvious, but you need to be able to play Region 2 PAL discs.

Also, for quality junkies, the PAL conversion can be an issue, particularly on older discs (for newer DVDs you're more likely to see speedup used on TV series, while that used to be the preserve of movies - although that brings its own issues, too).

Paranoia agent had a few minutes cut from one episode (the group suicide one).

Yep R2 PAL DVD's are no problem for me, now If I could just find a cheap multi-region BD player I would be really set.

The Toshiba BDX-1200 can be had for £50 over here and you can easily switch BD region (and make it all region for DVDs) by installing Australian firmware.
