France Kill Bill SteelBook™ France NOT region locked (well, sort of...)

Just got my 'Kill Bill v2' steel in the mail (Thanks, jw!) and working off a tip from the Blu-Ray region codes website got the disc to work on my US PS3.

Of course, when I first put it in I got the message saying it wouldn't play on my region player (in French, of course) -- hit the triangle button, told it to go to title 1 and VOILA! (no pun intended!), I was watching the disc that came in my steelbook!

Once I had the movie playing, I could pull up the pop up menu (or main menu) and throw it into English. Forced French subs, of course, but no need to replace it was a Reg. A disc and make a 'hybrid' copy of the movie, I can use the original now.

Just thought I would share. Hopefully this isn't a repeat of information, but if it is it's probably a good little piece since I didn't know about it until today. All the threads I was in when I was searching said "locked" so...anyway. There you go. Not sure how it would work on a standalone player, but for PS3 owners, should be good.
