Parents who want to watch PG and R rated movies but can't may have a reason to rejoice! Courtesy of Slashdot, we are now learning about a new "Auto-Censoring" DVD player. This device, although not Pocket PC related, could be eventually since so many people like to view DVD movies on their Pocket PCs. RCA has developed a smut-free DVD player that removes sex, violence and profanity from the movies you watch without removing the interesting parts.

"Wal-Mart, the country's mightiest retailer, is preparing to ship a $79 DVD player that automatically strips out potentially offensive content.
The gadget, made by French-owned RCA, aims to tap into mounting concern in the US about media standards.
But the self-censoring technology has run into protests from Hollywood."
If you knew how many DVD movies I've purchased but cannot watch simply because I have rugrats running around all the time, who might catch a glimpse of Arnold blowing up the Terminator or a similar type of scenario, you can probably understand how a device like this would be handy for me. What do you think?
