Pioneer so far has the cheapest 1080p-upscaling DVD player we’ve seen–its DV-400V-K will cost $99 when it comes out in May. The DV-400V-K will handle upscaling over its HDMI output and will probably be able to handle 720p and 1080i resolutions as well, though the press release didn’t explicitly say so. Its disc compatibility looks solid, handling DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW and CD-R/RW. It also can play back WMA, MP3, JPEG, and DivX files. The player also will be available in silver, with the model name DV-400V-S.

Pre-Orders are being taken at ABT for $99 (available in May).

There are also some great prices on existing models on Ebay:
