Very happy with it. Makes my 52″ Aquos LCD look awesome. VERY slow loading times though. Perhaps this will improve with time. Haven’t compared to any other units though.

While it produces a great picture, I am very disappointed with the whole "user experience" associated with this device. It takes FOREVER to turn on -- press the power button, wait 30 seconds for the "title screen" to appear on the screen -- and another 15 seconds for any buttons (including open/close) to work. Once you put in a disc, it takes another 40 seconds until anything from the disc can be played. And heaven help you if you try to play Pirates of the Caribbean -- about half the time I put in this disc, the player freezes up during the loading process (at least I stopped waiting after 5 minutes). <br/><br/>I have been a big Sony fan (almost all my A/V equipment is Sony) -- but this is the worst product I have ever seen them try to sell.

I have never had an event when I placed a Blu-ray disk in the player and it did not play. I have over 60 Blu-ray disks and all have played without a problem. The video on my 60" LCoS Sony HD is excellent. The only issue I have with some of the Blu-ray disks is when they are produced by a neutral HD producers they are generated for the lower bit-rate of the HDDVD disk whereas if produced exclusively for for the Blu-ray disk action or highly detailed scenes can be done at a higher bit rate. Yes startup is a bit slow sometimes but that is usually between 1 and 1.5 minutes. The only issue I have with the player is that Sony did not provide the audio bitstream over the HDMI port for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD so my Onkyo TX-SR705 can process these new audio CODECs. The audio however is still very good. I also have not had any problems playing the standard DVD that I have in my collection, they all where upgraded to 1080 without any problem and look very good on the 60" Sony HD.
