"...although we haven't spent much time with the BD-HPS20S, we do know that it doesn't live up to the expectations we have for Sharp products."
What do you mean by this? Are you saying the Mustek doesn't live up to Sharp's standards like I think you might be trying to say? Or, are you saying that Sharp's BD-HPS20S doesn't match what you'd expect for a Sharp product? Why not?
--------- on a different note: don't all BluRay player models that hit the market after Nov 2007 have to be profile 1.1? So, there's no way the Mustek could be 1.0 like 1stGreg suggested right?
Agree with EQC - how can you conclude it's worse than the Sharp with such limited exposure? The way things are outsourced to OEMs these days, there's a good chance it's the same player.
Yeah, that comment needs to be clarified. I read this to suggest that the BD-HPS20S doesn't live up to your expectations for a Sharp product, but it could also mean that the Mustek does not meet those expectations. What is the antecedent for "it" in that sentence?!
