LG BD390 or PS3 for Blueray

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

The xmas list is down to either an LG BD390 or a PS3 for a blueray player.
I imagine the LG blueray player will be more convenient for movies. But in addition to movies, the PS3 will play games too. They are the same price.
Any opinions on how much better and/or convenient the LG Blueray will be over the PS3 for movies?
Convenience is a factor. I hate having to wait a minute when powering up a device or loading a disk for anything to happen. But, if the PS3 plays Blueray disk with comparable audio/video quality and is reasonably convenient, why not get the game capability. Although game capability is a lower priority as we have a Wii.
What's yer take?
Don't suggest a $500 Oppo, the budget is $300.
