It is pretty cheap.
As far as Blue Ray concerned, I will wait out at least 8 month for the the price to drop and make sure they will prevail in the format war even I am sure they will due to technical merits.
I worked in (Data) Storage Industry as an engineer and Samsung was one of my offshore clients. They still have a long way to go but I'll pick Samsung over Sony anytime. |
I didn't check out the UI. My wife and I just sat there in the theater seats that CC had set up in front of the Samsung DLP set and watched the Samsung demo BluRay DVD. I was too awestruck by the picture quality to think about the controls. But I would agree, the UI on the old Samsung DLP models was very poor compared to other brands.
Are you still working in the data storage industry, Jon? My bro-in-law is low level programmer for Phoenix - he's a BIOS writer.

Not in any rush here. I already have a couple of small HDTV widescreens. No bigscreen in the house until we redo the kitchen and bathrooms. TV's are big dust magnets.
