The scuttlebutt I am hearing is that at best, we MAY see a price drop in time for Christmas this year. However, I do keep hearing differing opinions.

Congrats iSm!

You inherited a 46 inch tv, you suck! (to paraphrase NA)

Or just get a bluray drive for your computer (and of course, a HDCP capable graphics card)... that's what I did

LOL goober, but then you need to figure out how to out all that via HDMI to your TV, get a remote control going, figure out how to hook it to your 5.1 (or 7.1) receiver, etc. etc. Which I'm sure you know how to do

My computer is in the other room.

There's a computer in just about every room (and I'm working on ones for the bathrooms, too).

The Atomic Poopy Blaster with Fart Fan Cooling!

Yeah, won't work for me either (even if I were tech saavy enough to pull it off). I'm a one-computer household, and it's in a totally different room than where the TV's going.

Nope. Buying a player. Not waiting till Xmas. It's April, for lordy's sake!

Well, I do build computers, especially ones that look just like any other home theater component (complete with IR and RF remotes), just in case you wanna do something crazy.

Yeah, but then I would be stuck with a pee cee. Not a smooth operating Mac.
