Here is a similar box, with different players, to the one which I drove 2 hours roundtrip to see. Yuck. I guess there is a spate of these going around. Obviously it's not good...Hopefully I will save someone else a long road trip or a return. I am not aware of any "mini-Darby" boxes that are real. And a beat up, albeit real, E271 card for comparison. It is approximately 3 x 5.
