You can still update the firmware on these... I have no idea how (burn it to a CD maybe?) but I know it is possible

All of the bad reviews on Amazon are there because of people not updating their firmware]]>Sep 22nd 2008 2:32AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/Sep 21st 2008 8:15PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/

This is a profile 1.1 player and can bitstream all of the codecs so it's a better deal than what's posted here.]]>Sep 22nd 2008 1:13AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/
You guys are as bad as the media covering the Presidential race.

You have got to be kidding.

Personally I preferred to go $300 for the far more capable LG200
(it's just a firmware away from profile 2.0 and is able to playback all the $5 - $10 HD DVDs I've been getting).

This Sony, just like the old dead discounted Sharps, & Samsungs, is (still) poor value considering what an additional $100 more will get you. ]]>Sep 22nd 2008 10:01AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/Sep 22nd 2008 7:14PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/Sep 22nd 2008 8:21PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/09/21/sonys-bdp-s300-1080p-blu-ray-player-sinks-below-200/http://www.TechDealDigger.com.
