Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Make sure you update the firmware
I bought this because I don't want to upgrade my audio system yet. This product maps the latest audio formats to the ones my NAD T753 can handle and it has coax digital output which doesn't force me to buy an expensive optical cable.

However, the video section is not as good as I've hoped. Especially when it first came in. The high-res 1080P signal was quite grainy until I upgraded the firmware. It is much nicer now but I'm still not very satisfied because it doesn't compare to the 1080i local signals that I receive off-the-air or from cable. Watching "Planet Earth" series there are some artifacts that doesn't look good. I think this may be a compatibility issue and my TV is Samsung HLS6188WX.




Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Can't play Sony AVC-HD format
I bought this Panasonic BD55 player after reading all the good reviews here and at CNET. OK Here is my story:
I have Sony HDR SR12 camcorder which record HD in AVCHD format.
I had been editing my home video using Sony Vegas Pro 8 burn it on regular DVD and play it beautifully on my PS3 with no problem.
When I put in that same AVCHD DVD into BD55 it gives me an error message saying "UNSUPPORTED FORMAT". I was afraid of this...
So I am sending this player back and exchange for Sony BD player.





Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Really happy with this player
I'm really glad I waited for this model. Using the 8ch analog outputs it allows me to use my old Yamaha reciever that I really have grown to love the sound from. When on the analog output it gives channel volume adjustments within the player. It also simultaneously outputs optical digital so for the older formats I can let the reciever do the decoding and use the 5.1 features there. The configuration and menu features are great. Load times are fast enough for me. This is my first blu-ray player so I don't have comparisons. The pic quality is fantastic. I'm running mine at 720P as I have a 720P projector, so I can't speak to the 1080P features. For my set up this is a major upgrade. The upconverting to 720P for standard DVDs, mp3 and audio playback are all smooth and great sounding as well.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Incredible
The picture the BD55 player puts out along with the sound quality will blow you away. There is no downside to this player. I never knew my Sony HDTV could look so good.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Blu-ray Player and I've tried Three
Pros: Excellent Picture Quality for both Blu-ray's and Standard DVD's. Sound using analog output sounds amazing. It's 2.0 right out of the box. Can play pretty much anything. Has lot os extras in menu to work with. Slick and pretty dang cool to look at.

Cons: Not really a con but it uses SD cards rather than USB. But I guess that's actually a good thing so you can view photos and such.

Summary: I have tried three different players. I have a Samsung TV and thought that it would be a good thing to have a Samsung Blu-ray to go along with it. I had immediate problems with it. I then tried the Sony 350 which I had problems and some personal dislikes so I returned that one. After realizing I just needed to spend the money I went and picked up the Panny BD55. It is worth every penny. It surpases the picture quality and the sound quality of boththe Samsung 1500 and the Sony 350. The analogs out are great for anyone with an older receiver. The sound is fantastic. I picked up the incredible Hulk on Blu-ray and it was shaking the room. The menu is great and has tons of settings for those of us who like to tweak things. It is a beautiful looking player which you can easily find yourself staring at it. One thing that was very surprising is that the Vierra link works with My Samsung LN46A650 AnyNet function so the Blu-ray player and my tv will interact with one another. I turn the player on and the tv will turn on and change to the Blu-ray source. I turn the TV off and the player will turn off. It's pretty nifty. All in all it's a great player and probably the best that's out there right now. If you have the money go for it, it's worth it. If you don't need the analog out go for it's little brother the BD35.

How the Poor Die My right-hand neighbour was a little red-haired cobbler with one leg shorter than the other, who used to announce the death of any other patient (this happened a number of times, and my neighbour was always the first to hear of it) by whistling to me, exclaiming "NUMÉRO 43!" (or whatever it was) and flinging his arms above his head. This man had not much wrong with him, but in most of the other beds within my angle of vision some squalid tragedy or some plain horror was being enacted. Previously
Much of George Orwell's writings can be found online, including his essays. Here are a few from the site linked in the FPP:

You and the Atomic Bomb It is a commonplace that the history of civilisation is largely the history of weapons.
Books vs. Cigarettes With prices as they now are, I am spending far more on tobacco than I do on books.
The Lion and the Unicorn As I write, highly civilized human beings are flying overhead, trying to kill me.

A highlight of the site is the Road to Wigan Pier:

Mr Brooker was a dark, small-boned, sour, Irish-looking man, and astonishingly dirty. I don't think I ever once saw his hands clean. As Mrs Brooker was now an invalid he prepared most of the food, and like all people with permanently dirty hands he had a peculiarly intimate, lingering manner of handling things. If he gave you a slice of bread-and-butter there was always a black thumb-print on it.

As I Please, his collection of wartime essays for the Tribune, can also be found in bits and pieces on the web.

Our 300GB is bigger than your 300GB

HP is shortly to launch a 300GB 2.5-inch hard drive claiming it will have "more storage capacity than any other SFF drive in the market." Both Fujitsu and Seagate's have 300GB 2.5-inch drives already. What's going on?…
