LG BH200 (out of production) is the only one I know of.

The LG BH200 player plays:

BDs of any region,
HD DVDs (which are all region-free),
DVDs of any region,
and CDs of course.

The audio quality, whether analogue or digital, isn't as good as better players (except when bitstreaming, when its fabulous)

Video quality is superb though - thank the QDEO processing for that.

There isn't one. Well, that is: the LG isn't region-free out-of-the-box. You can make it region-free (DVD) and zone-free (Blu-ray) yourself, though. Whether firmware-updates will infect the region/zone-free settings, I don't know.

For hardware-modified BD-players that are made region-free and zone-free, see (for instance): www.BluRayMods.com
