Just a heads up as I've been following the BD10/BD30 low LFE saga.

According to the same insiders that found the BD10/BD30 LFE bug (Dressler/FilmMixer), it appears that the BD50 will very most likely *not* have the LFE bug according to their sources at Panasonic. The bug will be addressed on the BD50 before release. However Dressler seems to imply that the BD30 fix will remain a difficult one as it may require hardware modification, such as a resistor change. From my own perspective, I could see this being offered as a fix at service centers by Panasonic, though it would be an expensive one for the company.

Anyway, great news for the BD50! With this latest development, the BD50 looks poised to be the best BD player released under $1500 thus far! I am stoked, a final 2.0 profile BD player that looks set to rock the competition!
