Nguyen357 pretty much hit it on the head. I just haven't seen the BDX yet on the Arcam wesite. My understanding was that it would still be a few months in coming, and would probably be well over the $1k mark, since their regular DVD players easily exceed that. The Mac will be even more of course, but I think it's likely to be a redone Marantz, and the Marantz players all come from China as far as I can tell. Probably best for me to just wait and see if the Arcam comes down in price after awhile.
Thanks,
Lou
