Yeah, what makes the Panasonic 9000 $450 more expensive than the Oppo 203?
The 9000 is missing DVD-Audio and SACD playback capability and a HDMI input jack.
Could it be that the video processor chip inside the 9000 is few hundred dollars more expensive than the one in the 203/205?

* I would have put a donut transformer in the 9000.
