LG Electronics BD390 Blu-ray Disc Player – washingtonpost.com.
This PC World reviewer raves about the top of the line LG Blu-ray player stating:
The images it delivered to an HDTV were among the best we’ve ever seen. And with support for BD-Live, CinemaNow, DLNA, Netflix On Demand, Wi-Fi, and YouTube, the BD390 provides top-flight networking capabilities.
However, just the only thing he finds lacking is the built-in Wifi networking:
Speaking of poor video quality, the BD390 is one of two Blu-ray players we’ve seen with built-in Wi-Fi (the other is the Sony BDP-S560). This is a convenience for viewing BD-Live and YouTube content, but unless you have an exceptionally strong signal, we would advise against using Wi-Fi for CinemaNow or Netflix. When we tried it, we noticed a serious drop in image quality.
If that’s not screaming for a wired home network connection, either Ethernet or MoCA, to the living room – expect to hear more. Stay tuned for more news from CES on why MoCA is THE way to go for networking to the Home Theater.
