Does anyone know if the free blus come with the blu ray player or if you need to send away for them?

Cheers

Do you think that the other sellers, where the prices start at £111.00, also have the 3 blu-rays included?

Yup, but you don't need to buy a new remote to make the Panasonic MR.....

Both good players, Panasonic edges it for me, though I won't question your loyalties

I'm in two minds weather or not to wait until the sales start before I buy. I've just got this gut feeling it'll drop again. Saying that even at the price it is, it's still an excellent bargain.

I bought the s350 about this time last year, £163 with 8 blus, after xmas price went up and never really reached such a good deal until it was discontinued. So I'd grab one now.

Can you get multi-region on the BDP-S360B for Blu-Rays as well as the DVDs? Is there anyone selling them multi-region? I've heard that the menus not as fast on the Panasonics.

When I looked into this a whiel back these guys did: Sony Blu-Ray Multi-region upgrades @ www.multiregionupgrades.com - the No.1 Choice for Blu-Ray mods!

It could be cheaper to buy a US sourced player and have two on the shelf...!
