I have a Helios H4000. It is a cheap Chinese DVD player. It is also the best DVD player I have ever owned.
It is cheap because it is somewhat shoddily put together, and sometimes the buttons bounce.
It is the best player because it completely ignores the restrictions typically imposed on DVD players in at lease 2 ways.
1) It will upsample to 1080p through composite cables (really important if you have an older HDTV, which I do)
2) It will skip the opening menus and other crap and start playing the main feature immediately.
No player from the more mainstream companies will do these things.
