Good price indeed. Anyone got this set? If so, is it a big improvement on last lot of DVD releases?

yes and yes - even better than the previous, Ultimate Edition DVDs (for sound and vision).
Here's a blog I wrote when they were originally released, explaining the remastering done for the Blu-ray editions

Great deal! And regarding the release of the rest of the movies the signs are good now that MGM has green lit the next movie, expect the rest to be released in the run up to Bond 23 which is due for release in 2012 and covered in the off-topic threads!

I don't think it's quite as simple as that, if the remaining films haven't gone through the extremely thorough remastering process that the current BD releases have had then it might be a little longer than that before the lot are available.

They have; Lowry/DTS remastered the entire series....Mind you, they've also remastered the first three Indiana Jones films for Blu-ray, and we ain't seen those yet, either

Oh cool, hopefully they'll start coming a bit quicker then, now that MGM seem to have stabilized their position.

Ah, George probably hasn't finished putting more stormtroopers in or something (german ones, obviously)...

So long as it's not another case of Spielberg replacing guns with walkie-talkies

I've always been confused by the claim that the Bond films were re-mastered specifically for Blu-ray.
Why? Well, the Dr No BD, for example, has a promo in the extras that reveals the processes/techniques involved during the remastering.
But, it's the same promo that was used in the Ultimate Edition DVDs, with the same production-date during the end credits, which obviously pre-dates the BDs' release date.

They were remastered specfically for Blu-ray; they were also remastered for the Ultimate Edition DVDs (which is where that featurette comes from), but they had to go back to the camera negatives for the HD transfer. More in my blog here - a shame they didn't include a more up-to-date profile in the BD release....

Ah, OK, but I thought they also used the negs for the Ultimate Edition remasters?
Which is why I've always suspected that the BDs are sourced from the Ultimate Editions' new master tape. Seems odd that MGM/Eon have confused matters by using the Ultimate Edition's featurette.
Going to have a peep at your blog...
