If you want to snag Oppo's BDP-83 player for a little less than the 499 msrp, take advantage of Amazon's pay phrase system, which pays you back 5% for purchases from Amazon and 10% for purchases from certain other merchants like buy.com and jr.com.
5% of the Oppo is 25 bucks or so. Tack on free shipping, no sales tax, and whatever percentage cash back your credit card pays, and it may be worth your while.
After months of debating, I couldn't resist (even though my theater room isn't done yet.)
