I have a PS3 and picked up a BR player, when it gets in I will compare the quality between the two.

Shit I just picked a PS3 Sturday for my son and payed $599 :(. Do you guys think I can get my $100 back?

Sure - return it, then buy a new one when the price is lower. Where'd you get it?

Take it back and use the savings for X5 mods. :thumbup:

A price cut could help sway me.

NCX,

I am not a tech geek. And I am sure, for every arguement, there is an equal or better retort. But let me tell you:

I have a 65" Panasonic Plasma 1080p in my living room. It cost me an arm, two legs and my right eye. Yes, it was worth every penny.
I run everything through HDMI.
The only Blu Ray player I have is my PS3 and it looks nothing short of amazing. I would never even consider spending $600 on a dedicated Blu Ray player when I get the option of a game system as well.
- If you don't like the PS3 interface, fine, I can understand you getting a dedicated line. But take it from me. The picture on 1080p, blu-ray, running through HDMI and digital sound, is nothing less than extraordinary.

Thanks for the comments. And I hear you loud and clear. I am pretty hard core with my AV gear and change things around and upgrade a lot. I'll definitely give the PS3/BR a fair run before I go and spend money unnecessarily on a dedicated player. A friend of mine just got a PS3 and I have asked him to bring it over and hook it up for a weekend on my system so I can check out the pic quality, the interface, firmware speeds, etc. I bet I'll love it. 1080p rocks, no doubt. I am equally excited about the new high-rez audio formats.
