Should Have Waited 
2008-04-19
I bought this because it had a good price and great features. Then Toshiba pulls the plug on HD. And what do I wind up with? Five free movies that took months to get here and were not what I ordered. For $320. you would have to really really like these five movies.The player itself takes forever to load and does not play the DVD's I made myself very well. The menu feature is about useless on my homemades. What do I think would be fair? Just about any gesture from Toshiba would go a long way to make me feel that they know how cheated I feel. Perhaps they should issue $100.00 coupons for purchase of their Blu-Ray player that they will eventually come out with. After all I'll be buying Blu-Ray and this could take some of the sting out of this stupid purchase.

I'd Sell mine & the movies for $699.00, I'd even include the movies with it. Even better for $500. If anyone wants one.
Toshiba HD-A35 2008-04-10
Tell me how I can write a review for a product I never received?
My order was cancelled by your company with no offer to get one from a different supplier, no gift certificate for my trouble. nothing.
Not a very good impression for my first purchase.

The best of the best 2008-04-10
I got this player recently to upgrade from an A2 and am very pleased. One disc that I knew of didn't play on the A2 loaded no problem on the A35. and the online connectivity is better, I couldn't get the updates on the A2 with the same setup and the A35 loaded it no problem so I don't even need to worry about the update discs. The load time for a disc is much faster, the A2 you had to turn it on, go to the bathroom, make a snack for the movie, come back and still wait for the opening screen to come up, with the A35 just wait a few seconds and you're good to go, just do that other stuff during the previews. I am impressed with the 1080p output and the fact that if I wanted to I could hook up the analog 5.1 channel output to my reciever or get uncompressed audio(they say 7.1 but I don't know if they ever got that far) through the HDMI on a new reciever. I still wish they would activate the USB ports for use on downloadable content but I guess that's just a pipe dream.

What it is the point in selling this item and how can you justify the price 2008-06-13
Why on Earth is Amazon featuring this item when HD DVD is dead? And how on Earth can they justify pricing it at $700?
One great HD-DVD Player! 2008-06-10
The A35 was my 2nd HD-DVD player that I bought from Amazon and is hooked up directly to an Onkyo TX-SR705 then to a Samsung PN58A550 all with HDMI. I've been using the A35 for only a month now but put more than 200hrs on it playing a variety of HD-DVDs and standard DVDs. The remote is easy to use as well but now currently using a Harmony One universal remote. I had no issues with HD-DVD/DVD playback for both audio and video and hope it stays that way.
Reasons I got the A35 was because of 1080P, 24FPS playback, good selection of audio codecs, and finally the price!
I guess the only thing that I didn't like is the long 30sec+ boot up time but I also heard that some Blu-Ray stand alone players have the same thing as well. Oh and also how unfortunate that the HD-DVD format is "dead". I did buy a PS3 for Blu-Ray but I'll probably buy the Blu-Ray movies on ebay. Brand new Blu-Ray movies are too expensive. The A35 is my primary player to watch DVDs though especially since it's being upconverted.
If my A35 does fail within the warranty period then I hope Toshiba can replace it. If it's out of warranty I might buy one on ebay or use my $50 Microsoft HD-DVD player attachment to my Xbox Elite. I would lik to say though that the retail prices of this player on some online retailers are just simply outrageous!
Toshiba A35 is a great DVD player! 2008-05-25
I have had this player for 4 months now and it has been is nothing short of spectacular. If, we the consumer, is the reason HD DVD is dead, we should be ashamed of ourselves. I have a PS3 I use as my Blu-RAY, The A35 stands up to it in all phases of playback and web enabled capabilities. I hope to enjoy mine for years to come.
Terrific piece of electronic equipment 
2008-05-16
A really terrific piece of electronic equipment. It just really sucks that the High Definition medium surrendered to Blu-Ray. I bought one just days before it was announced that they would no longer be produced. Great equipment, but buy at your own risk. The discs will not be available for purchase, but your current, standard discs will be played in the upgrade mode. This might be of some appeal to many.
