Consumer review (newegg.com)

Don't Buy

 

Recent "update" seems to have helped network speed. But now it just hung when I tried to turn it off. Even leaving the power unplugged all night didn't help (just returned to the power-on, hung state when I plugged it back in). Shouuldn't have bought...

Plays discs. OK, even played most home-made BD-R and AVCHDs

Network VERY bad. Couldn't go for a minute or two on NetFlix or YouTube before it hung. Had to use the XBox or even the Wii (yes I was that desperate) to stream video. This on wireless and wired network as well ; Oh and the remote is VERY uncomfortable...

Philips BDP2185/F7

 

The only reason I did not give it 5 eggs is because I haven't hooked it up to the web yet.

As advertised, this player plays just about any DVD disc and file

None so far

ATI Radeon 7500 64mb PCI card

 

Might just need a software update, but there hasn't been one available since we bought it half a year or so ago (at least according to the player).

Seems to play most all my DVD and Blu-Ray collection

Poor network subsystem. NetFlix and YouTube hang often, on wired or wireless. CPUs, XBox, and even Wii give better performance (and with regards to the Wii, that's saying a lot!) ; Often hangs on shutdown ; We end up using the XBox for any streaming,...
