I'd go for the S350 between those two models. The first gen S500 and S300 were disasters as BD players. Besides their very slow loading speed, and I mean *really* slow, you will have problems playing many of the current BDs. Even with the newer S350 and S550 you may have to do a few firmware updates (I did with a S350). It is true first-gen Sony disc players are built like tanks, but their reliability has typically been much worse than second-gen...it's a trade-off which I understand how you feel making as I like well-built stuff too.
I realise the S500 and S350 are available for about the same price, but if you really need some of the capabilities of the S500 you probably should be considering the S550 instead. The S350 is fine for most people with very current AVRs (as far as the audio connection/decoding stuff).
