Same here. I'm a little dismayed to find that Amazon has the BD55 for $338 right now. I paid nearly $100 more (including tax) just a few weeks ago. However, I'm very happy with the player. If one has an HDMI receiver capable of decoding the sound formats, you get virtually the same performance from the Panasonic DMP-BD35 which Amazon has for $263.
