The early adopter units will also lack RS-232 hardware, so that's one difference other than, potentially, price.

Amen! Pretty much rubs out every remaining small annoyance of mine on the software side. Now can we have more storage and a faster processor and n wireless and a pony in the next hardware rev please?

I guess the main ones would be better DVD upscaling, DVD-A support and potentially better audio player performance overall. Honestly, if it's an either-or I'd get the PS3 considering all the other stuff it brings to the table: games, networking, PC functionality etc. You can work around the IR control issue fairly easily and I can testify that it's a really excellent Blu-ray player.

The OPPO was probably being let down by the crappy amp.

So what happened with the P-1? Todd says they're all gone and Luxman has decided there won't be any more, tough titty.

Ja! Nein!

I am among the seventeen people in the world who are extremely excited about this!
