Incredible image quality

I could go on-and-on about the impressive quality when playing Blu-Ray discs on this player. But we all know that already.

My big gripes about this player is how slow it is at doing anything. When you first power it up, it takes about 15 seconds just for it to display "POWER ON". From that point it takes about another 30 seconds until it recognizes clicking any of the buttons on the front. This can be particularly frustrating when all you need is to get your disc out.

Pressing any buttons on the remote also seem to have a lag time. Getting this payer to do anything requires plenty of patience.

The manual includes a software license for the GNU/Linux system. That explains the slow loading and response times - Sony has included a slow bloated operating system. Hopefully Sony will pare it down or replace it for the next software release.

Overall I am happy with quality of Blu-Ray, but sure miss the responsiveness of my old Sony DVD player.
