I'm seriously considering one of these, even though it's a Samsung

I don't have the rackspace or the inputs available for two more disc players in my big system, and the new price tag is low enough that I can rationalize this player as a carry-over until someone comes out with a better one.

Prior to official announce it was unclear whether the player would do 1080p/24 on both Blu-ray and HD DVD. Some sources were saying 24fps was only possible with Blu-ray. That would have been a show-stopper for me. I just finished reading the manual online, and it says that 24fps works with both.

The only trepidation I have (other than the fact that it's a Samsung) is that the manual is absolutely bursting with warnings of potential incompatibilities and possible future playback problems. I know there's problems with the formats right now, especially with Blu-ray, but the manual was a mind-blower.
