I really wish one of the Bluray players would win. I already have a HD DVD player and those can be bought for $200 almost every week as it is. BluRay is still ungodly expensive, at least for me.

Not looking good for either to win.

I'll be very surprised if any of us get the opportunity to buy any of these items, quite honestly.

Several deals going on right now for Blu-ray players sub $400. You can get a PS3 +10 movies instantly for $400 or a Samsung Player and 3 movies instantly for $375. If you have a Best Buy check there, Ive seen several Samsung 1200's for $225 open-box.

The Wii won day 1, and I was NOT selected.

The winner for tomorrow is the HD-Camcorder, but I didn't vote for that one.

You forgot to mention that Samsung sucks. I had to get a new player because my PS3 died and I got that piece of shit Samsung BDP1400. Never buy Samsung.

Let me get this straight... you are not happy with the replacement BluRay player you bought after your *PS3 DIED*, yet it is the Samsung that sucks? Hmmm.

I can buy a Wii for $79!!! Even though we already bought a PS3 from Santa, we might have to stash a Wii for his birthday in January. I'm not sure we can pass it up at that price. If nothing else, I should be able to make some money selling it.

Poor kid...

Well this sucks, I can't get the HD Camcorder (which I did vote for). Every item I voted for won - I was hoping I'd be able to buy all of them!

I did order my $79 Wii...

Let's say my BMW is in the garage and the cheapass dealership lends me a Hyundai. Should I be happy just because the Hyundai is running without regards to performance? Does Hyundai not suck?

I guess whatever player I have that when I put a shiny round silver disc into projects an image onto the screen and allows me to watch it, is the one that sucks less

I purposely didn't vote on that one. Saves me the disappointment.

But then I'm somewhat thankful - I would have gotten shot for buying an HD-DVD player after we just bought a PS3 from Santa.

Oh, and a $79 Wii which now becomes his birthday present in January...
