Special Deal Post: $60 Blu-Ray player?

Hot off the presses via Woot:

For tightfisted HD fans, Woot.com has a treat. Just a few minutes ago it posted two daily deals on Blu-ray, with the Magnavox NB500 player that we thought was a value at $128 two years ago on sale as a refurb for $59.99, and four “HD Over:” scenic Blu-ray discs for $9.99, plus $5 shipping on the discs or the player. A Bonus View (Profile 1.1) Blu-ray player from two years ago isn’t going to compare to the latest and greatest, but at just six Hamiltons we’re sure there will be a few of you clicking “I want one!”

We predicted Blu-Ray players would go down in price, but never to this level this soon. Goes to show you, if market forces align correctly, anything is possible. We’re pleased the world of 1080p HD viewing is available to more of the masses than ever before, and we’re predicting a quick sellout to this one.
