I think that if I was considering a standalone bd player, I would look at the bdp-s550, only because it is now cheaper than the Panny.
Actually no, I am very happy with my Denon 2500BTCI. And for standard DVD's my Yamaha DVD2300 does an excellent job being upconverted by the Denon AVP. So for DVD I use the Yamaha, for Blu-ray the Denon 2500/Sony S300, and for HD DVD the Toshiba XA2. So I think I've got my bases covered pretty well.

I'm sure the new Sony S550 is a an excellent player that pretty much does it all. But I'm very happy with what I have. So at least for the near term, all will stay as is.
