That $549 suggested retail price is pretty good. Especially for a products carrying the "Aquos" name. Before long this player will sell for $450 or less at online outlets.

A Quick Start feature enables the player to begin playing Blu-ray movies in less than 10 seconds.

I guess that's an even more impressive stat regarding this player. Hmm, that just might warrant a second look into a possible purchase.

...But no mention of the Profile specs?

(Suppose if it did have 1.1-2.0, it would be too good to be true, but...)

If you check Engaget they said it would take more like 50 secs! But for me the killer is the lack of Bitstream Audio. That's sad.
