HDV player suggestions

I need to finally upgrade and get my own HDV player. I can no longer rely on the one I was borrowing. I have FCP 6 and a Mac Book Pro - suggestions on the best way to go? Will a GV-HD700 HDV Video Walkman VCR work?

Sure it will work and work fine. Just get the extended warranty with it. They are not exactly rugged and tend to fail around the time the warranty runs out based on my experience with DV Walkmans.

and last i heard HDV "flavors" were brand-specific. so you cant play HDV tapes from a cannon camera in a sony player.

that was a couple years back, they may have resolved all that by now...?
