I've got an Panny RP-56, which was all the rage when it was first introduced. It's winter time, so I've got the upgrade bug. I don't want to spend big bucks, but $200-300 is fine. Is it worth buying the 82 to replace my 56? Will I even notice any difference on my Sony 10HT projector??


Or is there something else in that price range that I should be looking at??

The 82 will give you a slightly better picture due to its better mpeg decoder. However, most of the improvements are feature related (DVD-A, built-in DTS/DD decoder, time remaining/search functions, improved menu interface, quick replay, position memory for five discs instead of one, etc). It's a question of how much they are worth to you.
