I just bought a 42" 1080P LCD television for my bedroom and want a 1080P source to take advantage of the TV's capabilities. Now with HD-DVD officially dead this means my source will be of the blu-ray sort. My problem is that Sony's entry level player (BDP S-300) is now back at the retarded retail price of $399.99. A 40G PS3 retails for $399.99. So why pay the same price for a standalone player? It doesn't make sense to the consumer. Plus if you check the reviews on the BDP S-300 they are far from great. Apparently this player requires CONSTANT firmware updates which means it must be connected to the internet or updated via DVD burn from a PC. This leads me to believe that the drive in this player is very similar if not the same as the PS3's. Has ANYONE seen or heard of a futre price drop regarding blu-ray players? I don't care if it's 3 months away I just want to know!
