I did have a Sony DVD player and Pioneer DVD player, which have now been replaced with a Samsung DVD recorder, and a JVC dvd recorder. All four play both NTSC and PAL disks fine, and will covert to PAL if needed (although all my TVs will do NTSC playback as well, so it's not a problem if they didn't anyway).
I don't know if it's the same in the US, but generally any DVD player sold in the UK will play NTSC discs, as long as either the disk is not region coded (which if recorded on a DVD recorder is likely to be the case) or the player has been unlocked.
