At UK HiFi Show at Heathrow on Friday, Panasonic demmed the DMP-BD10 to good effect but would ship WITHOUT DolbyHD or DTSHD but upgrade firmware upgrade " sometime" in 2007. Also said HDMI1.2 only. VERY limited number of units would ship & model to be deleated IMMEDIATLY on intial release !! New model March / April 2007 - HDMI 1.3 expected + All audio types.

It's like trying to pimp DVI/HDCP once HDMI hit the shelves.

This does NOT fill me with confidence that I've made the right choice.
