Help me choose

I have a substantial DVD collection and am thinking of purchasing a Blu-ray player. My questions would be:

Should I wait? Is the technology still being fine tuned?

Which player is likely the best for playing DVDs?

Will players play different zone dvds?

Is Blu-ray also using the consumer unfriendly zone system? If so, are there all zone players available as there are for dvds?

Thanks to the better informed for your answers.
