Is you display HDCP aware?
Can your display take 1080p@50/60hz
Will the new Samsung have a MPEG decoder as good as the Oppo?
Will the new Samsung have deinterlacing as good as Faroudja?
Will Samsung develop the firmware like Oppo?

Basically no one knows the important questions that need to be asked about the Samsung as it is vapourware at the moment. The Oppo is a known system.
