Top notch player with tons of features

I have used this player for over 6 months and it has proven to be a great Blu-ray player. With the recent firmware upgrades, you can get Netflix, Blockbuster and Pandora streamed over the internet through the player. Since most people would already have their home theater set up through a nice sound system the addition of Pandora to the player is perfect. The quality of the picture and sound are as good as any other player I have seen (LG, Sony, Panasonic, Sharp)or heard. The load time is not fast but it isn't so slow that you get impatient. I highly recommend this model to anyone looking for a full-featured blu-ray player.
Awesome Blu Ray Player

I really don't understand why there are so many negative reviews on CNET for this player. I guess some were due to operator error, or maybe some of them purchased refurbished units. Anyway, this is my first Blu Ray player. I bought it from B&H for $219, and I absolutely love it!

First off, I heard many people complained that Blu Ray players are slow to load, so the first thing I did was to check out how fast it loaded, and to my surprise, it was not slow at all, maybe a few seconds longer than a traditional DVD player.

The feature I loved the most is the wireless streaming, not only the WiFi setup is a breeze (I use WPA2PSK with a NetGear AP), but the streaming speed is impressive. With 802.11A/G wireless connection, the player typically takes about 10-15 seconds to load a HD movie from NetFlix. PC streaming setup is straightforward as long as you understand how Windows file sharing works. I have a Windows 7 PC at home, and had no problem accessing the shared folder.

The picture quality of Blu Ray is top notch, so is the audio quality. My unit is plugged into my Onkyo TX-SR705 via a HDMI cable. The HD streaming from NetFlix is decent, close to 720p quality.

The only problem I ran into was the maximum resolution of PC streaming was nowhere to be found in the user manual, and I had to Google it out. Turned out the max resolution that could be played on this player is about 848x480.

All and all this is a great Blu Ray player. If you buy it online, make sure you buy it from a reputable vendor, and make sure you are not buying a refurbished unit.
Works great for us

I bought it at Best Buy on sale 225.00 plus 10 % off. Had a little trouble getting started but finally managed through it. Firmware took 10 mins to download through WIFI. Netflix works really good with this unit. All of my house is wireless and this unit works just fine. (linksys router N ) This unit has everything you need to go wireless. If your looking for other products to compare make sure it say WIFI on the box. Our plasma TV is also a Samsung and the remotes no need to program them.
Fabulous Blu-ray Player

Reviewer: James H. Rafferty,
I bought the BD-P3600 after researching the units extensively and subscribing to Netflix. The value is terrific, especially since it includes the wireless LAN adapter. The set-up was quick and easy and the connection to the internet through my 802.11n wireless router has been solid, reliable and smooth in the delivery of both video and audio. Being able to stream video over the internet is especially convenient and seems to be just as high quality as using a DVD. The no-cost Pandora internet radio is habit forming and I find myself using it all day while working around the house. Pairing the blu-ray player with my Samsung television is even better because they recognize each other and work together to deliver the best possible audio/video experience. Absolutely no problems with the unit and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for the same type of features.
Great Player, but wish it could play VOBs

This player was fantastic out of the box. The picture is clear and the sound is great.

Here were the things that inspired the 4 stars instead of 5:
* The vob file format is not supported for external drives or computer shares
* Manually configured computer shares are forgotten when you power the dvd player off
* It's a little difficult to type, but how often do you really do that on a DVD player?
