As in "Why do you need to purchase from these two players?".
Need a Sony, then get a PS3.
Need to not get a PS3 and it has to be now, then get a Panasonic BD35 or BD55 (the latter only if you must have multi-channel analog output).
Need a non-PS3 Blu-ray player and can wait, then hold out for the official release of the oppo BDP-83 in a few months.
"I don’t care at all about BD capability,"
BD = Blu-ray disc, so... why do you need a Blu-ray player?
"I just want the best picture and sound."
Not if you need a Sony BDP-s500 or BDP-s350.
If that really was what you wanted and not just a line, then you'd get an oppo DV-983H DVD player (ie, DVD playback will be the real purpose of this player since, per the above, you're not looking for BD playback) or, in case you changed your mind about Blu-ray playback, then you'd get a PS3 or wait for the oppo BDP-83.
Otherwise, what you need is a coin.
