Collectus:I was talking to my local dealer yesterday and he was pretty cycnical!
Oh really? There's a surprise...
Collectus:they deliberately market new products via reviews such as the one here to whip up a buying frenzy and then take months to actually release them to the shops. He said it'll be Xmas before the BD-50 is forsale!
And what does this marketing genius think would be the point in that? Surely there's no point having a product reviewed and build up interest if you can't deliver product to capitalise on that interest. By Christmas the whole market will have moved on, surely?
Or to put it another way, what was he saying you should buy instead?
