Scott, possibly the best buy in an inexpensive Blu-ray player would be the refurb available from
Sears of the Magnavox which Consumer Reports ranked second in a test of $200-$600 players in the 12/08 issue.
I checked the link and was very tempted... but looking at the images I noted there was no Network port and the specs say nothing of WiFi. How do you update Firmware to play new discs?
I Googled around and it seems you don't.
Is that why they sell them as Refurbs? Buy it, play movies, firmware update comes out... aaaand you can't play any new movies! Return it. They update the firmware and re-sell it again!
