    Yeah, I am not entirely convinced either but it is nice to have some sort of update. Now knowing the frame rate of UTEOTW in PAL format is speed up I will just wait for the US release instead of the current Italian box set. I have not seen this movie in a while and next time I see it I would...

Does anybody have any relavant experience with these sets to confirm one way or the other? I called the Toshiba sales...
