In general, prices are creeping down at ecost to levels I would consider:

DVD Players & Recorders - High Definition Blu-Ray Disc Player (BDP-S300) (Sony) - eCOST.com - electronics, computers, laptops, mp3 players

That player is so cheap cause its Sony recertified.

The Samsung 1400 is doing well, the Panasonic BD 30 is doing good and it appears these guys are happy with the Walmart player so far.

The Magnavox hasn't missed a beat yet for me and it plays AVC HD home made discs also...plus has a SD Card Slot...

That Panasonic BD30 sure looks like a nice unit and has great specs too.

The Magnavox unit is an okay-looking, but has pretty limited output options. Has a great price though!

Bargain: Magnavox Blu-ray Player for 8 (sort of) at Walmart.com

Still researching... Thanks for the tips!

Wonder how many have jumped on board with the sub $300 players.

**dfergie** · 08-14-2008 03:39 PM

Best Buy's Insignia NS-BRDVD Blu-ray deck falls to 9 - Engadget HD

I guess if you're just starting out, that $100 coupon for a limited selection of BDs is a good deal.

All the same, I'll pay 2 or 3 times as much for that OPPO, if it is delivered as promised.
