Samsung BD-P1000 Blu-Ray Disc Player - $569 Shipped!

So the BD players have dropped about %50 in less than a year. Now that they are priced about the same as a HD-DVD player this should make the format war even more interesting.

HAH!.. but its the old original model infested with poor performance and endless glitches. Maybe Amazon just wants to get rid of the product with an "F" customer rating.

You do realize that the Samsung player is by far the worst of all the BD players...not to mention that the deal you posted is for the original revision which is plagued with problems.

In theory, some of the 'P1000's issues (as I understand them) were either fixed or reduced via a firmware upgrade. $569 is still too rich for me, though...

If you must insist on Bluray, then you might as well get a 20gb PS3 instead of that deal....

$500 and not only is it a much better player, you can also play games on it.
