The disabling of BD-R playback is part of Blu-Ray profile 1.1 - all of the players you listed are profile 1.0. The BDP-S300 is one of the first where your BD-Rs will fail to work properly, and all players released after Oct 31st 2007 will not play standard BD-Rs authored in BDMV. And, even if you bought an expensive AACS license you'd be record your content for playback because AACS blanks do not exist yet.

In other words, by the end of this year producers of homemade content on Blu-Ray will be screwed. And, paidgeek is very much official word from Sony - he is an insider that represents Sony on AVSFORUM much like Amir is an insider that represents Microsoft on AVSFORUM.
