As far as free content.... most of the trailers and previews of the movies are in 1080p. So there is free content and there are movies on there that are $3-4 rentals but its typically the older stuff which doesn't have the best quality. I'd be interested in you doing another "roundup" of bluray vs zune vs vudu vs amazon vs psn vs netflix (and anybody else I might have missed). ]]>Feb 10th 2010 2:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/
I'll most probably get the new Panasonic 3D Plasma and Panasonic 3D Blu-ray player, even though I'm a Sony fan. (My current set-up is a Sony 32" HD CRT and Sony DVD player, but Sony just doesn't impress me like they used to.)

However...

With Blu-ray still in its relative infancy, and manufacturers scrambling to come up with new technology to get our dollars, I'm starting to feel that buying any Blu-ray player OTHER than a PS3 could be a mistake, as the PS3 is the only player that has the firmware upgrade flexibility to adapt to any emerging technologies.

Or does the upcoming Panasonic 3D Blu-ray player appear to have all the remaining bases covered?

Thoughts?]]>Feb 10th 2010 6:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/Feb 12th 2010 9:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/

You are right, although Flash is a terrible platform, it is a necessary evil. But I'd argue that access to sites that rely on Flash is a bigger loss than mist web video. The fact is that YouTube serves up like 90% of the web's videos, and it is supported. Of course that doesn't help you if the content you want to watch is on Vimeo or Viddler etc, but the real solution there is an App or HTML5, not Flash.]]>Feb 12th 2010 9:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/Feb 12th 2010 2:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/
Our App has video support, but not all of our videos are available via it. Not sure why all of them aren't. ]]>Feb 12th 2010 2:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/Feb 15th 2010 8:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/
I will probably get one anyway but it really could be better.]]>Feb 12th 2010 11:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/Feb 12th 2010 1:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/
The iPad has a keyboard. I can type on my iPhone at about 30wpm, so I'd bet I'd be even faster on the iPad.]]>Feb 12th 2010 2:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/engadget-hd-podcast-177-02-09-2010/Feb 15th 2010 8:31AM
