By all accounts the Silicon Optix chips are a couple of the best out there. I see Anchor Bay is the next big thing and that Oppo uses them in their top line players. I also suspect that the next rendition of the 38XX series will have a better video processor in it, although with everything moving to HD will it even be needed.
