Viera Cast and an SDHC slot make the DMP-BD60 stand out, but its slow performance and high price mean it misses out on an award.
A solid player, but not a significant enough improvement over last year's model and overtaken now by newer rivals
Price: $300 At A Glance: Viera Cast delivers ho-hum connectivity experience • Exceptional video processing • Full interactivity and audio decoding It seems like just yesterday that I reviewed the DMP-BD35 and DMP-BD55 players (HT, December 2008). But Panasonic spared little time getting its replacements out into the market. This was almost a blink, and you’ll miss the window for the DMP-BD35 and DMP-BD55.
Panasonic DMP-BD60K
The Panasonic DMP-BD60K might cost a bit more than the other top-tier Blu-ray disc players on the market, but in our opinion it's worth it.
On all counts, the Panasonic DMP-BD60K is a well-made Blu-ray player, and it ranks among the best such devices you can buy today.

The Panasonic DMP-BD60K costs a little more than other players, but its superb image quality and intelligent design justify its price.
