Panasonic DMP-BD60 Blu-ray Disc Player (Black)

I purchased the DMP-BD60 Blu-ray disc player on December, 2009. Because of my hectic schedule I did not get to opening it until February 26th, 2010. From the moment I plugged it in this product did not work and a massage saying "Drive Error" showed up on the screen (Which I found out, after intensive research, is not uncommon).
After (a very hard time finding and) reading the instructions on how to mail an item back to Panasonic (It was still under the 1 year warranty), I mailed the item the very next day.
As of today (March 17, 2010) the status of my case is "awaiting parts".
So now, not only that I am getting a refurbished product after it NEVER worked, it's approaching a month since I mailed it and it is still "AWAITNG PARTS".
After many attempts by phone and emails no one at Panasonic seems to get back to me with an answer and/or solution to when my product will be back.
What a huge waste of my time, expanses and energy.

The only negative thing I can say about this player is that it is slow to turn on and off. I upgraded from a 1st generation DVD Player, so the slower times may be the norm and I just don't know any better? Other than that, it's a great player at a great price!

The DVD player was a great value. The picture and sound quality are excellent. It seems user friendly, as well.

I am very pleased with this purchase. I was a little dubious about the upconversion claims so I put in a DVD copy of "Gettysberg" that I could not watch on my old DVD player because it was so dark. I put it in the BD60 and now it plays just fine. I just bought "Star Trek" on blu-ray and it looks fantastic. You will not regret investing in this blu-ray player.

Not all Blu-Ray players are created equal, and the DMP-BD60 is easily the best in its price class. The picture quality is absolutely amazing, plus it upconverts your older DVDs, and makes them look even better.

Great clarity, vivid colors, rich sound. The Amazon reviews speak for themselves, this is the best investment that you could ever make if you're shopping for your first Blu-Ray player. I'm an Amazon-verified buyer of this great little player, and it's easily one of the best purchases I've ever made.
