I've not seen exhaustive numbers on the slim, but it does appear to be a second or two slower than the original. But that will still have it on top of the Oppo in most cases, as the Oppo is usually 5 to 10 seconds slower than the fat PS3.

Hmmm... They just added next Saturday as a production day. A couple more days like that and I have a ps3 slim paid for.

So, when they add another Saturday production day, does that make it Reproduction Day?

To get things back on track....

I have nothing to compare to, as the PS3 slim is my first Blu player, but load times seem fine to me.

After watching a couple movies, I realize I'll need to bite the bullet and get the harmony adapter. Especially for times like this weekend where I'm going away and my wife wants to watch a movie. I'm going to have to train her on how to use the PS3 controller as a remote just so she can watch while I'm gone.

Maybe I'll hold out until Christmas and put in on my list. I always have trouble finding affordable things to come up with. We'll see if I can wait that long.

Boy, ain't that the truth. If it's affordable, I already have it.
