Reviews of the Philips BDP9000
-
CNET Review
The Good: Slick design; excellent picture quality on Blu-ray and DVD; DVD upconversion to 480p, 720p, 1,080i, and 1,080p; very good remote; HDMI output and included cable.
The Bad: Expensive; inferior support for both DTS and Dolby surround formats on DVD; expensive; no HDMI 1.3.
The Bottom Line: The Philips BDP9000 has some great design touches and excellent Blu-ray image quality, but its high price, less-comprehensive audio capabilities and the comparative affordability of the PlayStation 3 suggest that you should probably hold off.

Review Summary: Connected to an Epson 1080p projector (reviewed in this issue), the BDP9000 automatically switched to 1080p output after completing the "digital handshake." Video performance on the BDP9000 is roughly equivalent to what I've seen from Samsung's first gene
