This is a very active market.  There are quite a few providers in the
East Bay area.  One I recommend that has a POP in Walnut Creed is Beckmeyer.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by a multisystem TV, but there are
plenty of electronics stores in the area with a large variety of TVs.

Sorry, I just dont know.  I'm sure there are some places around the bay, with
the cultural diversity hear we have a little of everything.

Yes, you can buy them at just about any drugstore.
