Default sony bdp-bx1 questions

Has anyone ever heard of this receiver, the sony bdp-bx1. I got it from costco today and they said that it was just an update to the bdp-s350. I have looked in the forum and haven't seen any information on it. They said at costco that it bitstreams dts-hd and dolby truehd audio. If that were true wouldn't it show the hd audio formats on my receiver when playing them? Also when I press display while watching say, master and commander, it showed that the audio being used was dts-hd ma 3/2.1 channel. What does that mean. I know that it is supposed to be playing dts-hd ma 5.1 and that is what I want it to say, on my receiver as well as the player. Also the guy at costco said it was supposed to have wireless connectivity, but it doesn't. I wanted to get the bdp-s350 because it was supposed to be a good blu ray player that bitstreamed audio, but costco didn't have it. As far as I can tell this player doesn't bitstream. I had to get a new blu ray player because my ps3 was getting overheated with where I have it and how much I am using it. So I wanted to get the sony because it had the xross media bar which I was used to. But the main buying factor I was going by in deciding which player to buy was that I was tired of my receiver not showing the hd audio being used on the display and I heard it was because the ps3 didn't bitstream the audio. So I was told that the sony bdp-s350 bitstreamed the dts-hd ma and dobly true hd and like I said had the xmb, so I decided to go with that. I wanted to get it from costco because of their return policy, but they didn't have it and I am very sorry I got this one. Is this one very similar to the 350 because if it is, I will probably go with the panasonic bd30 because this is not at all what I wanted. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
