This is a waste of money. Looks like it does not have DIVX or MKV. I mean come on. I would rather buy the new C200 from PCH where u can add a blu ray player!
I believe it only plays MKV files stored on an optical disc, not stored on a network drive, making this feature less useful. I considered buying one until I learned this.

If you took a look at more than just the little snippet above, you would see several reviews noted that you can play both of those.
Actually, it plays most HD Divx and mkvs:http://watershade.net/wmcclain/BDP-83-faq.html#does-it-play-high-definition-divx-xvid-and-mpeg-files
I checked the reviews, and yes it does play MKVs. I take my words back.
