Hi , I'm new here and it's my first post

Today I just bought Sony 32XBR6, so I need a Blu-ray player. Question is I can't decide to get the new samsung 1500 or get a cheap upscaling DVD player and wait for july sony S350.

I want no PS3, I could get a the samsung BD1500 at local bestbuy for $360 after 10% off. Any input is appreciated. thanks

I would go with the 1500. It will do everything the Sony will, and be cheaper to boot.

You can get the 1500 at WM for $348

Serious ?? I been at my local Walmart and asked them, They said they don't carry any blu-ray player , only PS3

I was over at Best Buy, and got a look at the player. It actually has a much slimmer look than its predecesor the 1400 BD-P. I own the 1400 and I am very am happy with it. My main complaint about the 1400 is the lenght of time it takes for the player to open the BD tray after the "open" button is selected.<<<ridiculous.

Go here https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=40461 and read up on it. I just bought a 1500 at Wal Mart for $348.00 and so far this player is rock solid. Samsung has finally produced a fantastic player at an extremely competitive market price.

Where did you hear the BDP-S350 was coming out in July? I thought it was going to be in June for $399
