Wasn't sure how serious you were. You need to learn to use the emote when you are being sarcastic.

True, a DVD player on a HDTV is an illfitting technology balance. Once they get the whole spec thing nailed down, I think I would welcome a TV with BD player. But as I have once stated, it has to be a "blade unit", where it can be easily removed for service or replacement. About the only moving part on a tv these days are the actual buttons, which is why they last so long. TV's with players need to be accessible - period.
