Summary: 5 Stars
Awesome picture as viewed on a KDL-40XBR2 BRAVIA XBR LCD Flat Panel HDTV in Best Buy. If you don't have a 1080P monitor, get one of each with your hard earned dollars if you want the best DVD has to offer to date.Customer Review: Everything you could hope for

Customer Review: Lots of Good, with a few Blues
Summary: 4 Stars
I have owned this Sony Blue Ray for just about 6 weeks. I hooked it up to a Bravia 40" via HDMI and used optical for sound. Once you have seen 1080 HD nothing else looks right. It is truly amazing. It was pricey and the DVDs are too. However if you want to see your favorite movies the best way possiable, this unit does it all better than even a theater visit. Old DVDs are upgraded and very passable, better but not like the new disk. The new stuff looks better then it would if it were happening live outside in your backyard.
WONDERFUL, except for a few "blues".
Every once in awhile my player will lock up. The picture freezes and the only way to move on is to shut down and reboot. This seem to only happen with the Blue Ray disk. It is slugish to command when this happens and the reboot process as mentioned before takes about 30 seconds. Like a microwave, this seems forever. I was concerned enough that after 2 weeks I bought the extended warrenty to help save this $1000.00 player just in case I can not clear up the problem at home when it locks up. Knock on wood, Best Buy can and will back this new generation of DVD player. Other then that have fun and marvel at the movies you love. It is one great experience.
Customer Review: the other reviews; HOGWASH
Summary: 4 Stars
Just a post to say that people must realize there are many people who are unhappy with the demise of hd-dvd, so much so that they are crowind the blu-ray reviews and threads with terrible reviews, when they probably have never even owned a blu-ray player. I owned this model and it played blu-ray discs perfectly. If you're in the market for a play, though, buy a newer model. This is the first blu-ray player and there are many features it lacked due to it being released so early on in the format. Just remember, usually the terrible reviews are from angry hd-dvd fanboys whose format died a miserable death, as well it should have because Blu-ray holds more on a disc (20gb), has much better bitrate possibilities and now has the support of every major movie studio. Blu-ray is simply the high definition dvd.
