What's the hold up?

Lame Sony, lame.]]>Mar 2nd 2009 10:59PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/Mar 2nd 2009 11:19PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/
I sincerely hope they don't repeat this pattern.

There's no way I'm buying a Blu-ray player that handles less than a cheap DVD model.

Unfortunately for me, I otherwise like Sony's Blu-ray players, so I guess I'll have to wait.]]>Mar 3rd 2009 7:11AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/Mar 3rd 2009 3:19PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/
As for the remote, I'm a little annoyed that the CE industry has been so slow on moving away from infrared (weak, easily blocked), and I'm glad Sony has tried to move things along by making the PS3 Bluetooth only, like Apple did with the original iMac dropping floppy disks and pre-USB peripheral ports. I just wish they made the PS3 remote able to control other Sony devices like my TV, and any Sony A/V reciever I might buy.

If you're bound and determined to use legacy infrared tech for your PS3 remote, you could get an adapter for the PS3 so your Harmony will work with it.]]>Mar 4th 2009 9:56AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/Mar 3rd 2009 8:29AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/
Ordinary DVD supports 5.1; what makes Blu-ray sound special (among other things) is its support for 7.1 sound. How about it, Sony?]]>Mar 3rd 2009 2:15PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/
Your points make it even more frustrating that Sony don't have MP3 and Divx on their stand-alone models.

I want a stand-alone player. I never play games and I don't want a gaming console on my shelf. Plus, stand-alones are significantly cheaper.

I also want to use it with my Harmony One remote, without any hassle.

P.S. Looks like your cooking on the video side of things. Sony are tops for video products, but not for audio. You should consider looking at some serious audio equipment, like Dynaudio speakers for example. The difference between quality audio components and "all in the box" systems is truly astounding. If you can afford it, a high-end audio system will blow your mind. Have a look at What-Hi-Fi magazine for some ideas on gear and go listen to some stuff.]]>Mar 3rd 2009 3:48PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/
I am trying to decide between the BDP-S560 and the PS3. What will I be missing if I get the PS3?, If I get the BDP-S560? I will also be getting a samsung LN46B750 TV or may be the 52 inch LN52B750. I am not a gammer. I might want to stream netflix movies and I am a nature photographer and would like to show my stuff on the new TV]]>Mar 30th 2009 10:58AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10551&storeId=10151&langId=-1&productId=8198552921665791144

if you go to the specifications tab and scroll down a little bit, it looks like the bdp-s360 will handle mp3 playback. BUT, in a footnote it says Internet access required. Fees may apply???]]>Apr 4th 2009 1:04PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/03/02/sony-outs-bdp-s360-and-bdp-s560-blu-ray-players-new-bd-htibs/
