Denon 2800 DVD Player - Advice pls

Hi,

Have had a trusty Denon 2800 only 8 months now and upgrade/tweak -itis setting in. Anyone know where I would get firmware upgrades?

Also given that it only has component out, is not a universal player, the noteable drop in players, what advice on the following options. I do about 40 / 60 Audio / Video split, using Martin Logan / Bryston audio:

a) player modification - recommendations on where?

b) Sell and upgrade - If so, what suggestions (budget not so much an issue) but the next class of DVD player up (without paying fortune)

c) Wait and See - what new players, expected or recently announcec?

Many thanks!
