I bought one too at costco now a couple of weeks ago. It is slow to boot up and load a disk. But otherwise it seems to play really nicely. Not sure I can see a difference between this one and the other upconverter I bought (first, plan to return), but maybe I can.
Last night though it choked on a couple of my old home movies burned to DVD. It plays the more recent ones. Not sure if that is media related or what, but that is my only current complaint about it as a player. The same dvds play on my old DVD player, the other upconverted, and my imac.
I joined blockbuster also to rent HD-DVDs while they last. You may want to check that out.
