Sony continues to baffle with their strategy.

They only release 1080p players that most early adopters don't need (most of us bought 720p sets)

Now they want to rush into the pc market, when most people don't have a monitor capable of displaying HD, much less large enough to matter.

Sorry, I'll wait for a bd-hd-dvd combo unit, preferable a usb external that also had an HD tuner built in.....mmmmm..portable gooodness

Low Ranked

Its their my fault you woosed out and bought a 720p display. Really shows off how forward-thinking you AREN'T. So you're watching HD-res TV and movies @ 720p then? Then why would you bother buying a HD player for either format.....not to mention they can STILL display @ 720p. Its not Sony's fault most of Toshiba's players are 1080i, its not like it would cost them any more to output at 1080p anyway, if you could make use of it or not.

And to Toutster, its just the DRIVE, whats that got to do with PQ? Maybe YOU should do your homework first before posting.
