And you can enjoy shitty processing! DVD playback quality off of the PS2 was always terrible, and I don't expect BRD playback to be any better on the PS3.
I could go down to Wal-Mart and pick up a $29 DVD player, and I can watch DVD's on it, but it's not going to have the same picture and sound quality as a Pioneer Elite upconverting player with internal Burr Brown DAC's.
I could not agree more about PS2 DVD playback .. But with some much money invested in making sure that Blu-Ray wins , would sony risk that with a crap blu-ray player ? I dont think so,why would the include HDMI 1.3 if they were just trying to throw a crap player out just to be out? Im not a PS3 fanboy , I can care less , i just love tech in general.. I have a PS3 preorder and basicly and getting it for the blu ray player to go along with my New 60" SXRD XBR2 .. I just dont see any company throwing a new product out built like shit that they have so much invested in , by the time PS2 was out , dvd was around and sony did not own it , so the fact it had ANY dvd player was the selling pioint , not quailty ... Id love to get the Elite Stand alone player , but i cant see spending $1500 untill the "war" is over , then i will be willing to go top of the line with who ever is still standing , or combo player is released ..
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”
