My BDP S300 woes

[Antny]

I had to return the player after my 3rd movie. The player froze and from then on it made a funny noise when I put in a disc in. I returned it to Circuit City and they said they are getting a bunch of them back (not working). I got another one and I have to admit that both of them are extremely buggy. I understood I would have long load times but maneuvering through menus the player locks up, going from movie to menu it sometimes locks up. I hit the power off button the player just stayed on with the display saying power off. I love the picture but I'm a little concerned about it's operating performance. It's running 3.6 firmware and I ordered an update from Sony.
I sure hope it makes a difference.
