Sounds to me like this player was a bit of a rush job to put it mildly. Still, I don't think it changes much in terms of the format war outcome if indeed the problem can be fixed with a firmware update.]]>Aug 29th 2006 9:18AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/Aug 29th 2006 9:29AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/Aug 29th 2006 9:32AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/

For now, you've got to send the player in to Samsung to get it fixed, in which case you may not even get your original player back.]]>Aug 29th 2006 11:58AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/Aug 29th 2006 1:16PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/
It should be possible to update via CD/DVD, but Samsung is telling people they have to send the player back for the sharpness issue, which is supposed to be a firmware fix.]]>Aug 29th 2006 2:48PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/http://hd.engadget.com/2006/08/29/samsung-bd-p1000-and-50gb-blu-ray-incompatibility-rumors-continue/Aug 29th 2006 8:16PM
