So much so that I'm considering picking one up at that price.

Name brand BD player sub $200. - irish21 2008-09-22 17:58:55 (90 views)

this is good news. I'm sure we'll see similar drops this holiday season. - Jiggsy 2008-09-23 05:17:52 (15 views)

ya but, sales aren't going well for BD at all. - pierreb 2008-09-23 05:40:05 (20 views)

Hard to sell $400-$700 A/V equipment in this economy. - irish21 2008-09-23 07:47:39 (24 views)

Are they still making them? - Timmay 2008-09-22 21:34:49 (20 views)

Sore loser much? - irish21 2008-09-23 03:31:55 (17 views)

/\ Works for SONY /\ - faust92 2008-09-23 11:21:42 (14 views)

Yeah, that must be it. - irish21 2008-09-23 12:11:53 (22 views)

Sony Gophers are more loyal to Sony than Sony employees : ) - Rubberduckie 2008-09-23 11:47:47 (11 views)

WTF? I'm asking a serious question. Why do you have to be so cynical? - Timmay 2008-09-23 08:27:56 (32 views)

Apologies. Reflex response. - irish21 2008-09-23 09:29:01 (29 views)

Well... - Timmay 2008-09-23 10:05:29 (29 views)

No ethernet port, so no. - irish21 2008-09-23 10:07:19 (15 views)

Got it, thanks. On the other hand, I would have thought firmware updates can be done - Timmay 2008-09-23 10:09:04 (14 views)

They do have firmware updates available by CD. - irish21 2008-09-23 10:21:34 (16 views)

After reading a few reviews I think I'm more likely to get a PS3 or the S350 - Timmay 2008-09-23 10:28:02 (18 views)

PS3 is a great player. - irish21 2008-09-23 10:31:30 (21 views)

Yeah the load times are an issue. Lack of onboard decoding is another. - Timmay 2008-09-23 11:26:35 (21 views)

The XA2 is more like the Sony ES line, correct? At least the S500. - irish21 2008-09-23 12:15:44 (18 views)

Hmmm, yeah I don't think the build quality will be there. I suspect it'll be in line - Timmay 2008-09-23 12:32:59 (25 views)

S300 is out of production and replaced by S350.... thus the clearance pricing - larryV 2008-09-23 08:47:07 (14 views)

Other than the updated specs on the S350, I wasn't impressed with the build quality. - Timmay 2008-09-23 09:13:05 (26 views)

I agree. the S300/S301 does look like it's put together better than the new S350/BX1... - larryV 2008-09-23 15:31:23 (18 views)

Have the load times improved at all with firmware upgrades? - irish21 2008-09-24 06:21:20 (12 views)

I totally understand what you mean although I haven't experienced it first hand.. - Timmay 2008-09-23 16:13:56 (15 views)

For most people that player is fully loaded. - Rubberduckie 2008-09-22 18:12:39 (21 views)

What do you all think about this player? - justincr250 2008-09-22 20:59:23 (37 views)

should be some $149 deals around black friday. - pierreb 2008-09-23 05:37:16 (14 views)

For $200, it's a nice basic player. - irish21 2008-09-23 04:10:53 (29 views)
