Re: But which is better?

Just my opinion: get the RP56. I had the RP62 at home, at the same time when I owned the RP56. The RP56 had slightly technically better video, but that was with progressive. The RP56 is slightly more substantially built, but neither are noteworthy. The motor in the RP62 (and 82) is noisier than the 56. The RP62 is slimmer, and is available in silver, if that's more to your taste. IMO the lifetime of these players is only 2-3 years, so buy it for NOW, not the future.

FWIW, have you noticed the price of the RP56 has gone UP in many places since the 62/82 came out? Used to be not hard to find for $100-120. Must mean something.

Whichever you get, I doubt you'll be disappointed, they both have great video.
