The only other 2.0 player on the market right now is the Panasonic DMP-BD50, which can bitstream and decode all audio formats, has HDMI 1.3 and analog 5.1 outputs and an ethernet connection for BD-Live content and firmware upgrades.
However, because it’s the only 2.0 standalone player on the market it’s still at a premium. If you wait until Black Friday or the last few weeks leading up to Christmas you’ll get a standalone player for $199-$249 and it very well may be a profile 2.0 player like the Sony BDP-S350, which is being released soon and will get 2.0 compatability via firmware upgrade.
The PlayStation 3 is an excellent option, even if you don’t use it for games. You can install Linux on it, browse the web with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse, download movies on it which don’t have DRM, has HDMi 1.3, fastest load times, great picture and sound quality.
Good luck – the more Blu-ray’s you watch the harder it gets to watch DVD, even with a great upscaler which the PS3 definitely is, scoring 120/130 on the HQV DVD test bench disc.
