  • "Best second room blu-ray player available"
    4.5 stars
    on by subgenius37

    Pros: * Netflix streaming - producing good SD quality
    * Profile 2.0 compatible, though the 1.1 PIP is more important
    * Very good Blu-Ray Image
    * Very good upscaled DVD image
    * Great deal at 349 or less
    * Easy user interface
    * NO wifi

    Cons: * Lots of patches initially
    * No upscaling of Netflix
    * Not free

    Summary: The netflix streaming was a huge plus for me, and it works really well. I was actually glad they didn't build in a wifi connector. Everything with built in wifi is 802.11g and will all be outdated soon. If you have this setup in any type of home theater room buy a wireless bridge, I have a DAP-1522 (also a 4 port switch) which allows around 200 mps real world throughput. Blu-rays load fast and look great. I really don't care what it can or can't decode because I'm using it as a second player, so if that is important to you this may not be for you. Better and cheaper than buying a decent 300 dollar player and paying another 100 on a roku.
