#1: solves one of my problems.

#2: the future is always different to how things are now. Things change and BlueTooth may be part of it but during any change people will always have 'hybrid' systems, part old and part new. It would be nice if products introducing a new control technology also offered the old to simplify the change for those using universal remotes but that probably is too much to ask.

#3: what can I say? Slots are my least favourite loading mechanism. I'd say top loaders are not my favourite because the couple I've tried tend to have not that much extra well space around the disc and I've got fat fingers. Bigger wells would make that less of an issue for me. There's just an awful lot of room around a tray when it's in the open position and it's easy to keep a tray dust free.

#4:DTS decoding is important for me since I want a player to be able to handle all standard formats associated with the disc type. A software update to fix that one point might well tip me over the edge to a purchase since that's the big reason I've been fence sitting to now. I was very tempted to just buy a PS3 anyway a couple of times in the leadup to Christmas and that was the sticking point each time.
