Default Nothing yet....

HDTV's price from a few weeks ago..

BD35 - $270+tax
BD55 - $370+tax

I ended up getting the Sony PS3 instead. Glad I did.

So why aren't you getting a PS3? Remote control functions?

Default I doubt it

FS/BB usually needs to see something in print and none of their prices are ever printed.

Default Because I don't play games. I don't mine the slower load times...

BR players are superior in audio compared to PS3, that's my main concern and 1080P picture too

Default Correct, the PS3 does not output uncompressed TrueHD data....

It will convert it to DD 5.1 but like the following article says, it's old school, but then, it doesn't matter to me since it'll be a long time yet before I'll upgrade my receiver to something that supports the newer formats.<ul><li><a href="http://blog.webjak.net/2008/03/01/dolby-truehd-and-dts-hd-ma-on-ps3/">http://blog.webjak.net/2008/03/01/dolby-truehd-and-dts-hd-ma-on-ps3/</a</li></ul>
