bestbuy already ran specials at 199, granted they were close out, but expect to see it this christmas, they need a critical install base to over come dvd sells, so my money is on 199 players, crappy ones but still blue ray players for 199

 

PS3 has the best quality Blu Ray player on the market and it is also a gaming console.

 

Sorry, but if you think PS3 is the 'best quality Blu Ray player on the market', you are insane.

Example:

Not to mention that any $500+ Blu-ray player is going to be better than the PS3's drive. They put a cheap drive in there on purpose because they have to keep production costs down. I'm not saying it sucks, but your statement is just insane.
