RE: Paging Jack G

I still like the Sharp. I've had no problems with it. The sound via analogs is pretty good. It decodes True HD, but not DTS-MA (What does?). Its a good BD player, and a very good DVD player-its what I use now for DVDs. I use the instant on feature, so it boots up instantly, but is still somewhat slow to load discs.
Gripes? No ethernet port. Upgrades have to be downloaded to a USB stick, which goes in the back of the machine. I haven't upgraded my FW and may not in the future either. It supposedly has problems playing 28 Weeks Later, and there is an update for that.
All in all, I'm quite happy with it, I just wished there were more BD titles I wanted.

EDIT: It does have one quirk. After turning it on, it goes to a set-up screen. The instant on feature bypasses this.
