That's pretty damn sweet. A BonusView player for under $350! I have updated the specs:

I saw it online and available last Saturday, but was puzzled as Philips released a statement saying that the MSRP would be $399. Strange.....but good for consumers. The owners manual says it will bitstream both TrueHD and DTS HD MA.....I'll find out tonight.

Anyone know if this will be upgradeable to BD Live?

That aside though thats a pretty sweet price for a Bluray player.

And whats better...decoding or bitstreaming? Is it really important that a player have both options?

Thanks for the tip going to order it now.

That's a nice deal for a bonus view player!!!!! This might get bought for my mom.

Doesn't say anything about codecs, but this thing will definitely get you started.

Enjoy this time. Building the collection is the best part!!!

No, but our player section does.

Bitstreams both TrueHD and dts-ma through HDMI only.
Does not decode for analog. Similar to the DMP-BD30.

No, this is a 1.1 player.

Circuit City has it online as a pre-order with a 5/7 date for $399.

I'm gonna try one of these out

I have the O.G. Philips Blu-ray player, the BDP9000. She's my first Blu-ray player & still my favorite

Mine too. Works like a charm. Gotta love it. Who needs a profile 1.1/2.0 player?
