Currently an imported 20gb PS3 is by far the cheapest BR player.

I believe the currently cheapest available stand alone players are over 500 quid. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong).

You can get the samsung stand alone BR player for about £350.

There are a couple of threads about it around here

I managed to get hold of a Sony BD Writer for £270 off e-bay for my HTPC. I was well pleased!
