Blu Player below US$200
« on: Sep 22, 2008 at 08:13 AM »
Sony's BDP-S300 1080p Blu-ray player sinks below $200



Sony's BDP-S300 has seemingly always been at the forefront of Blu-ray price drops, and while we were pretty stoked to see it hit $299 last December, the very solid 1080p player has now reached an unquestionably delectable $199.98. On sale at Amazon "while supplies last," the deck combines a name you've heard of with a price point you can probably stomach, and moreover, we're hoping this is just the beginning of an industry-wide effort to lower the barrier to entry for BD. Scoop it on up if this is the moment you've been waiting (and waiting) for.

Agree with Moks007 but for those with tight budget then this is certainly a good option if the "negatives" can be overlooked.

I have this unit. Ok lang.  sad to hear lang that it does not support True HD.  Although its quite positive on my side coz my Yamaha 6.1 receiver is still the old one.  No True HD.

Try the magnovox blu-ray for $128! > http://www.geek.com/articles/gadgets/on-black-friday-wal-mart-to-sell-blu-ray-player-for-128-20081119/

Or you may try the Best Buy "Insignia" brand for around $170.
Your eye is the key...

Panasonic BD-60 is below $200 nalang sa Amazon ....

Kung ako lang ... since its just 4 months away ..... wait for Black Friday nalang :) baka you can get a higher model later for the same amount of money you're shelling out now sana :) OR higher model tapus me sukli ka pa ...

There are plenty of brands already in the US that are below $200,

http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=1249353208/ref=sr_nr_p_36_3?ie=UTF8&rs=352697011&bbn=352697011&rnid=386442011&rh=n%3A172282%2Cn%3A!493964%2Cn%3A1266092011%2Cn%3A172514%2Cn%3A352697011%2Cp_36%3A10000-20000

Though, I am still waiting and hoping that the BD titles would somehow go down a bit...
