Sony BDP-S550

Sony To Drop Blu-Ray Player Pricing In September-Other Makers To Follow » HDGURU.Com

Looks like the flagship Sony player will be priced at $399, and the S350 will be at $299 starting in October. As a result, the Funai player is dropping to $250. I think by Christmas there may be another reduction by $50 to try and push the players for the holiday season.

The S550 might be the ps3 killer, in that it decodes all audio codecs (or bitstreams them), is a profile 2.0 player, and it has analog outs for those that need them. For my second TV, I am strongly considering this player since the ps3 is so hard to find now.
