Looks like ps3 is the clear winner. Din know ps3 not officially available here. Not games kaki.
Another noob question: bd discs oso like dvd region encoded ? For eg I get a bd player from japan, can i watch the bd from us or other parts ?
got jalan to get from japan 1 unit so thinking to buy or not to buy or get ps3 ?

japan unit same region with US and SEA, but i remember japan products, only jap language nia, no engrish one

dirtrun, 60gb no more liao
the sammy bdp not really tat good, i remember it was used as a free gift during pc fair wen u purchase a panny AX 200

Should avoid Sammy BD players at all cost, it takes forever to load movies with Java menus like AVP2, POTC, etc. Some movies will skip and out of sync. They have not fixed the problem till now.

Safest bet as of now is Panny's BD30 player but if you can wait, BD50 will be out soon.

for peasant like me..i opted ps3..but if you can afford go for standalone player..yeah BD50 will be a good choice..

peasant means still using VCD

Hi,

I think ps3 is popular cos it is oso a gamin machine and does bd discs as well .. d price helps too..

But performance wise .. de Panny bd 30 beats it in most cases..

Ok.. bd 30 is alrdy 2999 .. how much will de bd50 be listed as??

Crazy prices n software oso not cheap..

but bd30 is too expensive.

maybe you can buy from ebay. My estiamte you will get cheaper by few hundreds even after tax...

Can you explain the sentence in bold?

kekekeke, aiman stand by his ps3

buy in spore lor... 799 sgd nia...

Just the truth bro. Until now there is no player that can even beat PS3 for disc loading time. And there are a lot more advantage than any current BD players right now.

I'm not a gamer, I also prefer standalone, one thing I'm longing is the bitstreaming capability (though not that big a deal actually). No doubt someday we'll see better and cheaper standalones in future, and I'll be the first to buy it.

loading time, ps3 :thumbs:if ps3 offer HBR, other no need sell liao

Forgive my ignorance but ps3 got hdmi i suppose?
Good upscaler for dvds as well ?

Yes, else it cldnt be HD player.

Hi,

I donno .. most of de reviews compare it favourably to de ps3 but in de US they are abt de same price so its a fair comparison.. over here de ps3 is cheaper than de bd30, so its unfair to compare .. ppl assume when u pay more..

Hv been trawlin thru avs's bd30 threads(200+pgs..) n apparently it got sum bugs too.. wonder wat version our local units are??

Cheers

most prolly our version is the outdated version

Sharp doing a promo for its Full HD LCD TV. Just add RM1,299 to buy BDHP-20A. Saw it in newspaper today.
