 Outstanding Player Mar 17, 2009
I have had this for about 6 months and it is excellent. Panasonic provides excellent support via frequent firmware updates. The picture quality and sound quality are both excellent.
 Great blue ray player, but I wonder if it's worth it Jan 21, 2009
Simple to set up. Have it hooked up to my Pioneer Kuro 50" plasma and it looks beautiful. Slightly annoyingly long time to start up when you turn it on.
I just have this slightly nagging feeling that buying a blueray player was just a waste of money as compared to a regular DVD player or an AppleTV. Not sure if paying more for this one vs one of the cheaper blueray players was worth it either.

 Panasonic DMP-850K 1080p Blu-Ray Disc Player Dec 21, 2008
This player has outstanding audio and video quality. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the owner's manual was written for a total geek. The instructions for even the simplest function are so convoluted that they are virtually impossible to understand.
The Viera Link instructions are particularly difficult to follow, although one can gather that Viera Link is intended to simplefy thing. If it weren't for the owner's manual, I would rate this product five-atars.
I bought the Panasonic HD camcorder at the same time, and those instructions aren't much better. They give you these incredibly complex instructions on how to edit scenes and burn a DVD, but the things most people want to do is make a video of their grandkids. The basic instructions could be made much simpler. (Same comment for the Viera Link)
Blu-Ray Newbie Nov 13, 2008
I waited until all format BS subsided and for the new generation blu-rays to be released. The difference between blu-ray and regular dvds is not as big as the difference between HD and cable, but on this player there is a noticable improvement in the picture quality. One great surprise was the sound improvement. The sound quality will really blow you away!(I recommend the Matrix scene where Morpheus is rescued.)
The BD-50 is easy to set-up. I don't think I will utilize all the BD-Live capabilities, but downloading new firmware is a nice feature. Also, photographers will enjoy the HCSD slot. If you don't throw away all your regular dvds, I think the upconversion does make them look a little better. I know the BD-50 is more expensive, but you will be happy with the purchase!
Great Player but... Oct 25, 2008
The picture quality and sound on this player are excellent. My unit seems to have issues with the BD-Live feature. After numerous calls into Panasonic Tech Support, they were not able to solve the problem and it looks like I am going to have to send it in to the service center (on my own dime). This is the only trouble that I have had with the unit, the other features work like a charm.

Consumer Reports Says: Buy HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (July 2010) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2009 and June 2010. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its July 2010 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com came closest.
