Well if you insist on buying foreign ones, then unless they can be unlocked you will be limited to a player from the following countries / areas

Europe, Japan, the Middle East, Egypt, South Africa, Greenland

Hong Kong is region 3 so you can forget that one.

Then you will have the power supply issue. If the device comes with an external wallcube type power supply then it can be replaced, otherwise you may need to buy a transformer.

Lastly there is the whole PAL/NTSC/SECAM thing, but that shouldn't be a problem on a modern LCD TV, worth double checking though as standards converters are not cheap

Both of those look ok to me. They're both UK ones so they will work fine. So long as the size and connections are sufficient for what you want.
