Boy, I wish I had a brother that would get me a gift as pricey as a PS3. Then again, I think that I would have to start with having a brother and not a sister. Sisters just don't understand...

Maybe I'll trade you a brother for your sister. Is she hot?

Especially since, after the trade, she would have become his sister...

I've watched Blu-ray on both my 720p and 1080p sets and Imo there is a huge difference between Blu-ray and SD on both sets. I think he would be very happy with a HD player.
You may want to wait until Black Friday to see what kind of deals are available before purchasing.
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

We need a Black Friday in Canada.
Maple Syrup Sundays just are not cutting it anymore.

Murph, what do you think Boxing day is? We just never see the same type of deals up here.

OK, so the next question is which player to buy. Since he only has 2-channel, the latest wiz-bang audio codec aren't too important. Picture quality for blu-ray discs and uprezing his standard def dvd collection will be the primary issue.
What's the best bet for that situation?

I should also note he doesn't have easy net access from where his tv is positioned, so "live" access to the web would likely not be possible.

ok...I think I'm answering my own questions here... I also have a $100 gift cert from Walmart. I'm thinking this may be my best bet. Anyone strongly disagree?
