Sorry for my english. Bang & Olufsen just launched a blu-ray built in for BeoVision 7 - 40 MKIII in early 2009. There will be no solution outside.

Dont think they ever will release a Blueray player. 

I can recommend Sony BDPS300/350 which you can easily control with a bang & olufsen remote either via:

I recommend you a compatible external player like the Panasonic DMP-BD30.
Needs only to update the list of the STB-Control for use this player with the BEO4 or BEO5

Hi!

I would much prefer the panasonic DMP-BD50 rather than the BD 30. The BD-50 has internal decoding of bouth Dolby True HD and DTS Master Audio and the BD-30 does not. BS3 cant decode the new sund formats so you will have to let the blu-ray player do it and then send it to the BS3.

Ahmet!

I agree too, as having the Blu-Ray inside the BV7 40' allows us to keep the B&O integration.

Blue-ray isn't going to take off. It's a treat, yes, but it's just not going to catch on anything like DVD did and B&o is right not to have a Blue-ray, i see us moving right away from physical media.

You watch...
