I would say it's an excellent BD player, but not the "best". I haven't noticed any problems, and I'm quite picky. And it's still faster than most. You wouldn't think speed would be a factor, but just try one of the slow ones (most all, until very recently)...some aspects of BD can be real slow without some computing power behind them it seems, which is where the PS3 excels.
For DVD, it is "OK". Much better than some at upscaling, but IMO not as good as the most recent quality BDPs, nor as good as the HD-DVDP I had. Seems artifact-free in general. The problems I see are in the source material. I scale to 1080p. If you scale to 1080i, the "problems" you see may be in your display's de-interlacer, some (many!) of which are quite poor.
Be very careful how you set the PS3 up. The included manual is mostly useless, the online one much better. There are some potential "gotchas" for PS3 BD setup.
