the S350 can be made region free for DVDs via universal remote hack.

I don't want a PS3 for gaming. I don't use my xbox 360 at all.

As for the internet browsing, and messaging - I've got 2 laptops *one huge and one diddy* and a phone...

I don't fold and for a media player I've got a media PC and a hacked Xbox.

So it would purely be used as a DVD and Bluray player.

Currently investigatign the Sony 350, 550 and the Panasonic BD35

Seen that Amazon offer - very tempting.... all it's missing is Iron Man dvd to match the Blockbuster offer...for £40 though...

Iron Man BD will only be like £15 anyway wont it?

Precisely. Plus i can flog Wall-e and Casino Royale.

Wall-e cos I've already got it, and Casino Royale because it's crap.

I recently got a Panasonic BD35 and am pretty impressed. I'm having issues, but that's related to my projector rather than the player.

Ironman is in the 2 for £25 deal in Blockbuster.

Nnnnnnnngggg.....

Sony 350 or Panny BD35....

Sony's 550 doesn't have anything extra that I really need so thats out. I like the price and the freebies with the Sony... But I like the Panasonic because it's not Sony and and seems more capable.... Gaaaah!

Well, i didn't want to PS3 because i have no games i want to play on that and i just wanted a multi region player that upscales well.

The Sony S350 fit the bill to a T.

For someone who doesn't want a PS3, or a folding machine, or internet browser, the extra expense probably isn't worth it. Personally I'd prefer a standalone now they mostly match up BluRay feature wise, if only because it suits under the TV better style wise

I would say PS3's look better under the TV than any other Blu-Ray player out there...
