Now that a number of companies have started to ship new Blu-ray console player chipsets that will dramatically reduce the cost of console players, I expect possibly as early as September 2008 Profile 1.1 players dropping under US$200 and Profile 2.0 players dropping under US$250; these price levels are the "tipping point" that will convince all those people who have been buying widescreen TV's with HDMI inputs in the past two years to finally buy a Blu-ray player. Besides, what better way to show off your HDTV set than playing the Blu-ray version of Cars (the video quality of this Blu-ray release is so amazingly sharp you could literally see ALL the details of the decals on the various animated cars, every blade of grass, and even every pebble of loose gravel on the track! ).
