  1. The PS3 excellent image quality, has very fast load times – some players take an age to load a blu-ray movie to get it ready to play. It is Blu-ray Profile 1.1 compliant and Sony has stated that it will be upgradeable to Blu-ray Profile 2.0.

    Cnet.com rates it as the best buy amongst blu-ray players.

    I have a PS3 hooked up to my HT via HDMI and the movies and sound are amazing!

    Now the games (if you like that sort of thing) when played on a HT setup are also amazing.

    Only downside is that the remote is Bluetooth and as such you cannot program today’s universal remotes to control the PS3. Maybe one day :)

  2. PS3 is the way to go. It will update to all new versions without a problem, unlike other players. It always plays [awesome] games (duh) and has excellent blu-ray playback for a good price. Rumors are that the price will go down to $299 by the end of this year.

  3. I second that. The PS3 can update to new frimware when needed. Works fine as a gaming platform and also upconverts Dvd’s. Price isnt to bad compared to a standalone blueray player.

  4. Unless you want to wait later for players that are compliant with profile 2.0 then by all means get a ps3 now, it is the only current player capable of updating itself to profile 2.0.

  5. while i was looking about for a blu-ray player for myself i came across this blog with lots of info about the technology behind blu-ray and there is a link to a phillips player on there too…
