Those waiting for the next generation of Blu-ray players, here you go - Sony
has announced
two new Blu-ray players, the BDP-S350 and the BDP-S550. Both feature BD-Live
(and thus Ethernet) and USB (for external) storage, while the S550 has PiP
(BonusView) and 1GB of onboard storage. As for the rest of the specs, well,
expect TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, dts-HD (and dts-HD Master in the S550), AVCHD
and xvYCC color support, and, of course 1080 60/24p. The S350 will hit for $400
this summer, while the S550 will run you $500 this fall.
