Just seen that Play.com have the new Sony BDP360 in stock at £199.99

Play.com (UK) : Sony BDP-S360B Blu-ray Disc Player : Electronics - Free Delivery



Seems it's cropping up at few other stores as well, all around the same price band.

Seems a bit of a price hike compared to a 350. Having just ordered a 550 I was tempted to hold off for the 560 at a rumoured price of £250 but I don't need Wi-Fi connection.

Based on the 360 price maybe the 560 will be more than £250.

The price will come down quickly. At £200, it is cheaper than the 350 was when it first came out.

The 350 has been reduced successively until it reached it's current level. I would have thought it will only be a few months before we see big cuts on the 360.

RicherSounds are doing the 360 for £199.95, with multiregion DVD.

I paid £200 for the S350 when it came out so the price is about right.

What's the differences between this and the S350 then ?

Nothing. It just looks different and will come with profile 2.0 (S350 was launched with 1.1). The S560 will be the same plus built in wireless.

I think the 360 also decodes DTS-HD-MA whereas the 350 only decodes the 'core' DTS track.

Yes it does. Only really useful with people with HDMI amps that doesn't decode HD.

Deep colour upsampling supposed to be a bit quicker loading discs as well,response through menus etc.
