Except we again come to the point that

(1) Sony is NOT the only blu-ray player, so is Samsung, Panasonic,
Philips, etc, all of whom are much bigger and richer than toshiba. I'd
bet on samsung versus Toshiba any day of the week.

(2) As time passes and because of economies of scale in manufacturing,
the price of blu-ray players will may actually get below $300

And, yeah, you can ALWAYS wait and see and get a good low price
later....in fact, i do that quite a lot...

but you know what, our lifespan is finite and life is short, and i'd
rather start enjoying now rather than later ;-)

in the end, you'll be buying a Blu-ray player anyways ;-)
