Is Oppo a U.S. company? Considering the price of their DVD player I'm a bit surprised this unit will cost $499.00. I guess the addition of Blu-ray and internet connectivity adds some cost.
Are you saying that the cost is too high or too low? Their DVD players range from $169 to $400. The BD player is a replacement for Oppo's top of the line DVD player. Remember that this is the cost of participating in their testing program, not necessarily the cost for an actual production unit.
