Hi guys, I'm thinking of getting a PS3 primarily as a Blu-Ray player since I heard that it performs pretty well in playing Blu-Ray discs.Do you think it is worth getting a PS3 just for that?Of course I could pick up a game or two from time to time.

Which model should I grab, the 60gb or 80gb one?I'm leaning towards the 60gb for its cheaper price unless the 80gb has something important that I need.I don't think I'd want the 40gb model because it dropped support for SACD playback and PS2 games, unless it is significantly cheaper than 60gb model.
Please advise, thanks smile.gif .

If you really don't care about games, might as well just go with the cheapest option since the more expensive version does not offer anything 'extra' to you. Join the club! smile.gif

On another note, the extra HDD space might be worth it if you love watching trailers in HD. There are also tons of game demos that you can evaluate before purchasing them.

verce, tats the prob, it only upsclaes DVD, and not the SD contents in blurays itself

for those getting it as a BD player, a 40gb would be sufficient
as HDD is swappable without void of warranty
it would cost u sgd 559, which is dem cheap

If you're planning to go to KLIA POS, be prepared to spend a lot of time there.

As for my case, they even asked me to go to Kastam's main office to get some chops to say that what I imported is appropriate. Once you're done with that, you will have to go all the way back to the POS, and do whatever they asked you to do.

I still don't understand why they have to make us go through that many hoops just to get such a simple thing done. Even so, the people there are friendly, so all the best for ya bro. smile.gif

I believe she's refering to the Pos Malaysia building next to the Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT). There's some Kastam guys based there.

You know the POS Malaysia building beside the LCCT? Everything is there. Bilik 2 is within that building as well. If you're really unlucky like me, they will ask you to go to the main customs building, which is opposite the POS building (It's the tall building opposite the POS). It's within walking distance, but you have to go to Level 2 AND Level 6 to get some dude to stamp your papers.

Make sure you go a bit early, the customs closes at 6 PM. However, Bilik 2 guys leaves at 530 or something. I don't think they're open during public holidays, that's the leceh part.

rx330,

No upscaling for SD content for us then huh? Does the standalone player does that?

I see the other building is just close is it,i thou must go out KLIA and go to other place again then come back to KLIA.
So they will charge based on the price write on box? Ai why amazon still list the full price of 2 bluray instead of 1.

So did they charge you from the full price or promotion price?
How to let them know the actual price,take the credit card resit?
