I got those blu-ray players in my store, they sell fast. Very fast, faster than PS3s. Infact, they have halted every attempt possible at selling the PS3 as a blu-ray player with tons of features. Why should non-gamers pay extra for a console that plays blu-rays and plays games they will never play?
I hate those things.
Why must JRPG female leads suck so bad?

The answer to your question would be because the PS3 paved the way for a price drop on Blu Ray. Blu Ray got a 16 Million console push just from the PS3 alone, which save Blu Rays ass. It was a sure thing for Sony...just push it in the PS3 hardware and make people pay more for it. Tech people can finally get their hands on an affordable Blu Ray player without the videogames in-store. It's no strings attached for Blu Ray DVD stand alone owners now with pricing. The PS3 is still considered a cheap Blu Ray player. Sooner or later Sony will cut the price of PS3 next year.

Your option doesn't have the ability to burn BD-R/BD-RE discs. 
I was actually thinking about picking up a Blue Ray burner for my PC. I don't really care about watching BD movies too much, but the 25gb BD-R's would be good for storage of all the stuff I download. (I already have my Wii/360/PC/DS for games
)

While in a more perfect world I could use brand loyalty towards my advantage in a scenario of helping a person choose between a PS3 and a BDP-350, the average consumer doesn't care for brand name when well. Both devices are made by the same brand, if the BDP was a LG, or a Samsung blu-ray player. Then yes, I could use that to my advantage.
This world however is not a perfect world, and as time goes by. I'm finding a it more difficulty to sell PS3s. If its not for the xbox 360 library at the store (which is larger than our PS3 library). Its the price-tag. If both consoles are capable of HD, most people are willing to take the cheaper one. Espically if they can hook up a now-very-affordable good blu-ray player along with that new xbox 360 of theirs, one that doesn't run the risk of "over-use" as I've heard one too many PS2 consumers talk about; what with DVDs and all that.
The best way as a sales person to sell PS3s is to attack the other consoles, which is a negative from a salesperson view as I am now being biased that way, all consoles need to be treated equally. Sony needs to give myself as a salesperson, a bigger bargaining chip to sell consoles to consumers. I still try, trust me. I do, I get more commission from a PS3 sale over a xbox 360 sale. (Minus the elite, which are equal). But dispite my efforts, I'm still selling 2 xboxes to every PS3, and 5 wii's to every PS3.

Interesting information. Where do you work?

Why thank you... As a "home cinema nut" the PS3 has so far offered the best video output and audio output of any standalone Blu-ray player while also with its built in hard drive offers flexable software upgrades such as online features. |
I agree completely. I happen to have a home theatre setup to die for... and out of all the Blu-ray players that I have bought, I still believe that the PS3 is the best one released yet. It's also the second best upconverter I have (second only to my Toshiba A30 HD DVD player).
