If you've been following my high-def disc news (here, here, and here), you'll notice that I've been busy. After more research, I found out that there are now three "profiles" for BD players; more info here. Since the standalone player I had was a 1.0 unit and had no way to update to the new profile, I returned the Sony BD player and got the safest one—the PS3. Of course, not only is it a great BD player, it is also a good media center and can be loaded with Linux and used as a computer. Software updates for the PS3 are a click away. Oh, and it plays games, of course.
