Authors: UK consumers may be taking their time jumping on the Blu-ray bandwagon so maybe Sony's latest Blu-ray players, sporting Wi-Fi and sensible price tags will help them make the leap. The company has just announced its new BDP-S360 and the BDP-S560 [above], the latter coming with integrated 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity to make updating firmware and accessing Web content a snip. They both offer full 1080/60p and 24p True Cinema Output and support for the latest HD audio formats like 7.1-channel Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio and DTS-HD Master Audio. They are Profile 2.0 players with support for Internet-based BD Live content, like trailers, extra content and games.The BDP-S560 uses Wi-Fi Protected setup, which promises simple connection to your wireless router and it also supports DLNA, for easy communication and file swapping with other DLNA-certified products. However, despite the inclusion of Wi-Fi the player does not support content streaming from your PC, for instance, which new players from Samsung and others do. Still, there's always the price to look forward to as the BDP-S360 and the BDP-S560 are priced at $300 and $350 [US first], respectively, so will be in the £215-250 ballpark when they arrive this summer. Oh, what a difference a year makes.-Martin Lynch blu-ray movies sony
