The PS3 has been a great Blu-ray player for me - lot of features its nice being able to download trailers & games and rip music to the hard drive.

For $1500 you should be able to buy a HDMI 1.3 LCD I have the Samsung LN-T4061 sells for around $1500 or less. That being said I am not aware of any content that utilizes the HDMI 1.3 video improvements. From what I have heard the deep color is a subtle difference (like more shades of blue in a sky scene) that most people wont miss if it is not there.

My projector does not support HDMI 1.3 and I am not to worried about it.
