  PS3's are the same price as any where else. I happened to get a great deal on a Bdp-s1. If your comfortable shopping ebay you can get some really good deals if you watch it. IMO I choose the Bdp-s1 because of it's high end attributes. If you're familiar with Sony's es line you will know that they seem to put more into the higher end units such as descreet circuitries, noise reducing chasis, maybe oxygen free wiring...etc...for better overall performance, but I wouldn't discredit the PS3 because of all the things that you can do with it, it's my understanding that it's a fine player with all the extra options it offers.

    Not if you're in Australia like three–sox and I.

    Quoted recommended retail for a PS3 over here is around the $900-1000 Australian mark and our dollar is currently worth about 79 c US. In round figures, that's about $720-800 US which, I think, is about 50% higher than recommended retail in the US.

      The PS3 goes anywhere from $599-$1000(for the 60gb). like I said sometimes you can catch a break on eBay if you watch it.

    BDA is going to change their specs (or at least its requirements) in June, to include interactivity via their BD-J.
