Sony has launched the new BDP-S470 stand-alone Blu-ray 3D-ready player. The model can be upgraded to play Blu-ray 3D content with a firmware update available this summer. In addition to Blu-ray 3D playback, when connected to a broadband Internet network, the new models stream movies, videos, music, and more.
The company also announced that the previously introduced BDP-S570 Blu-ray Disc model and the BDV-E770W and BDV-E570 Blu-ray Disc home theater systems will be Blu-ray 3D capable with firmware updates available this summer.
The new models, along with the previously announced BDP-S370, are now shipping and will be available at U.S. retailers, Sony Style, and www.sonystyle.com next month.
"Consumer excitement for 3D is unbelievably high and Sony is poised to deliver the best possible in-home experience," said Chris Fawcett, vice president of Sony's Home Division.
In addition to Blu-ray 3D playback, when connected to a broadband Internet network, all of the new models instantly stream movies, videos, music, and more from Netflix, Amazon Video On Demand, YouTube, Slacker Internet Radio, Pandora (Coming Spring 2010), NPR, Sony Pictures, Sony Music, and over 25 total providers through the Sony BRAVIA Internet Video platform, says Sony.
As services such as Netflix, Amazon, iTunes, and Blockbuster are offering streamed or downloadable TV and movie content, the acceptance of web-based consumer electronics (CE) products is increasing. Research by In-Stat reveals that worldwide shipments of web-enabled stationary CE devices will grow to over 230 million by 2013. (Read: Web Devices that Bring Internet Video to TV)
The new models also feature Sony's Entertainment Database Browser using Gracenote technologies that allows users to browse details like actor and production information from a Blu-ray Disc and access related content found on BRAVIA Internet Video content.
Unique to the new models, users with an iPhone or iPod touch device can control the players using a free app called "BD Remote" that can be downloaded from the Apple App store.
The app allows an iPhone or iPod touch device to function as a remote control that includes the ability to access a Blu-ray Disc's details such as jacket artwork, actor, and production information as well as search for additional video clips online.
According to Sony, the models also offer improved start up and disc loading performance.
When the quick start feature is turned on, the start-up time is quicker and disc loading is faster than previous models.
The company says the stand-alone Blu-ray Disc players can start-up from power off in about three seconds.
