Samsung 3D Wi-Fi Ready Blu-ray Disc Player BD-D5500ZA $34.99 + S/H ($8.24) - Cowboom

Thanks, bought one. Just picked up a 3D TV and was in no hurry to test out the 3D capabilities. But at this price, I can't say no. It'll be nice to get away from having to use my PS3 as a blu-ray player all the time too!

Came out to $46 with shipping and tax. Still seems like a good deal to me for the features.

Any file format playback?

Just thought I'd point out that it doesn't have built-in wifi, if that matters to anybody else:

I assume this means it needs some type of adapter or router/bridge setup?

Oh wow you are right, I thought it came with WiFI

Wi-Fi-ready

The BD-D5500 features an Ethernet port for a wired connection to your home broadband network, but if you'd like to go wireless you can add a Samsung wireless adapter and enjoy connectivity free of cables--great for those whose Blu-ray will not be close to their router.

I think any wireless adapter would work maybe?

probably a usb wifi dongle thingy. the 3d LG tv i bought a year ago said it had built in wifi when what they really meant was it came packed with a usb wifi stick. seems to be a trend lately. why make two models when you can make one and repackage with $2 usb stick and sell it as a different model?

Thanks for the tip. I've been needing a 3d blu-ray player for few weeks now. roommate moved back to cali and took his ps3 with him.

The word "READY" kills the deal.

Remember when TV's were "cable ready"?

ahh good catch on the wi-fi ready. Still, $35 for a 3D blu-ray seems good to me. My 3D tv is already a smart TV with wi-fi and apps, so i'm not losing anything there.

it's a 3D Blu Ray player for 43$ bucks lol

maybe you don't want it but it's much cheaper than anywhere else

Nevermind. I was just able to ad it to my cart.

I am a little hesitant when there are more one star reviews (48) than 5 stars (41.) Average is only 3 stars.

I'm honestly not sure if the wifi dongle things are usually proprietary or not. I know my Dad got a Sony "wifi ready" player and ended up getting a separate external wifi adapter that just attaches via ethernet cable (basically an external wifi card), so there are options, at least

Pulled the trigger, PS3 is acting up reading BD discs. Thanks op, repped.
