New here and all that... - Blu-ray Forum

This is the best Blu-ray site I've found so far, so I thought I'd join the forums and say hello. I've been wanting to get a PS3 for a while now, and originally had plans to pick one up next year some time. Then the local HEB Plus here in Austin put the 60GB PS3 up on Black Friday for $349.99, and I couldn't pass that up. Stood in the freezing cold for 5 hours until they opened at 5 am, but it was worth it.

I mainly picked it up for the Blu-ray movie ability, and for a PS3 game every so often, so here I am. I've got a couple of movies so far, but I plan to spend as much money as I can to support this war.

For my setup, I'm primarily a computer user, so I'm using a 24" Widescreen LG LCD monitor, it uses HDMI input and is 1080p ready. I've got a 5.1 Logitech speaker setup, the Z-5500 set, that's brand new and kicking ass. I'm getting AT&T U-verse installed tomorrow, and I've got everything hooked up to a really good HDMI/Toslink switcher that I picked up from Best Buy.

My only question so far would be where are all the good Blu-ray sales? I know Fry's has a some decent titles right now for like $14 that I plan to pick up, and I hear that Amazon has the occasional BOGO offer. Anywhere else besides that?

Anyway, that's my story, cheers all.
