Hi Gmorf,

My Axiom colleague, JC (Jean-Claude) recently acquired the Panasonic Blu-ray DMP-BD55, and he seems thrilled with its audio and video performance. I don't know how price-friendly the BD-55 is, but prices have certainly come down and Panasonic is very competitive in the marketplace. JC previously used Playstation 3 for Blu-ray playback.

He also told me that the Panasonic BD-55's upscaling of standard DVD is quite superior to the Oppo he'd used previously.

Regards,
Alan
