S is a luxury already...composite is enuf.

Anybody knows the price for this baby?
I'm ON!

Then I wont need a BDP and a Media player. This would be one for all.
I can even put my HTPC on hibernation.

Firmware 3.0 can play mkv or not?

hahah..ok another good new to those who have a sony bravia tv. YOu cna use the Tv remote to control your ps3. So you dont have to buy a bluetooth remote. Also when you switch off ur bravia tv it will automatically switch off ur ps3 also... Cool eh..In the future it will be compatible with all Sony device... all the devices will be able to snyc with each other. Thats the vision. and we are seeing the integration happening bit by bit.

Good news for Sony owners. Again this was the problem with the HDMI chip they used in the fat PS3. This technology, HDMI-CEC is not new. Many manufacturers been using this for at least a couple of years already. It takes advantage of the digital connectivity to sends signal via HDMI in between the different HDMI-connected components. But the problem is, it's restricted to one single brands only as each has it's own codes. Sony calls it Bravia Sync, Panasonic Viera Link, Samsung Anynet+, etc.

For me it's better just using a third-party universal remote as it can control each of your components simultaneously , any brands or model. But of course, for PS3 it will need the BT adapter, that's ok with me though.

Different region players.

Well, Panasonic BD60 also has US, HK & Malaysia version. They're all the same model, even the BD region is the same. The difference is just the warranty coverage (and/or the PSU).

ps3 will all be made by Foxconn China

M'sia version seems more expensive, is it bcoz it's have local warranty? US version one have no local warranty, is it?

well i doubt u can claim for warranty on a product u bought in US in ur local Sony shop

which means deep down they're all the same

All 3 are from the same region A, only diff is the warranty coverage from different country, and where they are shipped from.

So HK and US sets' warranty is covered in those country only. The selling shops will usually tell u they cover the local warranty, but be very sure of what they cover in the warranty as usually they FOC the workmanship but charges for the parts changed.

To be safer (esp since the unit is new and unproven in the long run), wait for the MY version as the warranty is covered by Sony MY. I hear that the unit gets hot very fast (due to the more compact casing) and the fan turns on more frequently (as its smaller and slower to reduce the noise levels).

Ps. SCE(HK) covers HK, Taiwan, SG and MY, some shops may say HK set instead of SG.

Thanks for details explanation
