Well, since it looks like I am the only on this forum that owns the new Sony S370, I'll go ahead and open a new thread.
My first impressions:
The player is super slim.
The power cord can no longer be detached.
The remote control HAS an eject button. Kudos to Sony for adding this back.
The main menu background is now black. So it kind of looks "Dim" now.
Performance
I spent some time testing some blu's and sd dvd's and the picture quality on both is fantastic. I also own the Sony N460 and I will say the PQ on the new model is slighty better on both BD's and DVD's.
Booting takes about 15 seconds with quick start off and about 5 seconds with quick start enable. Loading time is the fastest I've ever seen. I have a PS3 and I say it rivals that of the PS3.
POTC 1 and 2 loaded in about 23 seconds.
Spiderman 3 loaded even faster, around 20 seconds.
Terminator 2: Skynet Edition which was painfully slow to load on most players, loaded in about 40 seconds.
Now, keep in mind that I don't have stop watch, so the times are just "ballpark guess"
For those of you that owns Stargate: 15th Anniversary Edition. I have bad news. The new Sony player is still having issues playing this disc. While watching the extended cut, if you hit the pop up menu button during playback, the disc automatically pause and the menu "Hangs". If you hit play, you can hear the audio but it will not go back to the movie. This does not happens while playing the theatrical version. My PS3 plays both cut of the movies flawlessly.
That's all I have for now, please feel free to post any questions or comments
Peace!
