Page 1 of Samsung/Thomson hacks. I`m confused, please help.

Can anyone tell me if the Thomson 3300 hack is possible to perform on a Samsung 611 or 811 in order to get the player mulitregion?
When I read the hack-list I found out that the Samsung 709 hack only works for one movie, and when I read the Thomson hack it says that this hack also goes for the Samsung players and that this hack will make the player multi!!?
I simply don`t get it. If the Thomson hack works for both Thomson and Samsung, why bother performing the Samsung hack? Unless it is to get rid off the macro in order to copy a movie.
This again leads me into wondering about if it`s possible to perform the 709 hack on a Thomson in order to get rid of the macro.

Finally, if you guys had the opportunity to get either a 811 or a 4200 paying the same amount, which one would you buy, and why?

Thanx for all possible help!/ Takk for all mulig hjelp!

The 709 hack has been around for ages, whereas the Thomson has only been recently discovered. The Thomson hack should work on the Sammy 611 and 811 as well, although I am unsure about the macrovision status with this new hack. Perhaps someone else can clarify this for us.

The Thompson hack works with the 811. I am not sure about macrovision.

Thanks a lot! That`s all I need to know.
