I'm not quite ready to see HD-DVD throw in the towel just yet. If they manage to stir up some more good marketing this war will be far from over.]]>Feb 27th 2007 4:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 27th 2007 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 27th 2007 4:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 28th 2007 8:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 27th 2007 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 27th 2007 4:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 27th 2007 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Now will someone please hurry up and make a 1080p projector with HDMI 1.3 for < $2K?

i'll have the respect for sony and their products once i know they are also improving quality of their products and more open /friendly customer support system]]>Feb 27th 2007 5:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/
Guess the "cheap blu ray player" PS3 isn't really working out for them.]]>Feb 27th 2007 6:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/It's called a PS3
they make it and charge people 600 dollars for it.
(maybe they think people will buy this since this DOES come with HDMI cables)
What idiot would get this when the ps3 also has a hard drive and gaming capabilities?

Seriously, if you're going to even bother reporting things that Sony does, PLEASE DON'T GIVE ME YOUR OPINION. This is not your private blog, this is a NEWS blog. I expect to see facts here, not the bias of some reporter wanna-be who wants to change the world with his words.]]>Feb 27th 2007 7:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 27th 2007 7:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/
The PS3 gets sold in videogame sections in stores. This unit will be sold in Home theater sections. Completely different audiences. While we Engadget folk are so savvy we may know to buy a videogame system for blu-ray, less savvy (and usually more wealthy folk) would just search the DVD player section.

Sony pulls a similar tactic with their high end ES equipment. That stuff gets sold in specialty shops like Magnolia only, but every now and then they'll take an ES component, take off the ES branding, and sell it as a normal Sony product. Why? Because Best Buy carries normal Sony stuff, but doesn't carry ES stuff. It's all about what market they are trying to reach.]]>Feb 27th 2007 7:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/
Um, see the way this works is... new technologies come out, and eventually they get better and cheaper. I will get more than $300. (yes, I got a discount) blu-ray enjoyment out of my player during the December to "summer" period.]]>Feb 27th 2007 8:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 27th 2007 9:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/
Samsung already announced a cheaper 2nd generation player, and don't you think that Pioneer will have non-Elite players?]]>Feb 28th 2007 5:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/
Bring on the war..i can wait it out 6 months, 12 months, heck I'll wait 2 years unitl it drops below 3 hundred bucks for a player.

Still love my SD DVD's and upconversion dvd player!! The difference is not like it was jumping from VHS to DVD.

Love the battle!]]>Feb 27th 2007 10:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 28th 2007 10:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/Feb 28th 2007 7:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/27/sony-officially-announces-600-bdp-s300-blu-ray-player/
Plus the BDP-S1 has been out for a few months now anyway, and who doesn't expect new products to come out?

Early adopters know the risks.

Wow, so Sony is actually updating a product from Q4 '06 in Q3 '07. Sounds like what any consumer electronics company would do to me.

By summer $600 is going to be the high end of the Blu-Ray player market like $1200ish is now.
