I talked to OPPO today and the 2 month timeframe was mentioned. It does do SACD now, not DVD Audio, but it could based on firmware in the future, may not be on announce date.
On pricing, the discussion went, well its designed to compete with the $2000 Denon and the $1000 Pioneer. So it will be priced to be bargain compared to them..so its most likely will be north of $500 for sure....oh my.
It is meant to be 'better' than the bd 35/55 and sony 350/500 according to them again targeting the more high end Denon and Pioneer players.
OPPO was very nice on the phone and as straight forward without spilling all the beans....
If you want their product you will just have to wait and yes this means them not making the X-Mas market place....
