A good match & companion...

Mon 251010

Yup, a good match & companion...for our latest Samsung UA32C4000P LED TV!

And yup, it's a Panasonic Blue Ray Player, Model DMP-BD45GA-K! What can I say? It's simply that the HD Ready LED TV is kinda incomplete w/o a Blue Ray Player ie what's the point of having a HD Ready TV when one does not have any way to watch HD movies on it? True?

That particular BR player model was found to be on offer for RM499 ie down from its original price of RM999! As the offer was only till the end of this month, me had to make a fast decision then. It was a BIG "Yes!" And fully supported by my other half...Thanks a meg, MDB!!

Here are a couple of pics...the box in which the unit came so that you can see the item more clearly; and of course, the slim unit itself installed just below the LED TV (Check out the display on the TV!!) :
Don't they look so well-matched?


And of course, the unit by itself with its remote. ( This pic was courtesy of one of the reviews in the Net.)

Well...again...what's the point of having a Blue-Ray Player & a HD Ready TV when there are NO HD movies to watch?

And so it was that a special trip was made to Star Parade where I knew there were video shops selliing "fake real" BR discs! Just can't afford originals! The latest original BR discs of "Iron Man 2" is selling for RM149!!! Other old movies cost around RM70+ each!! Phew! Now where can I ever afford throwing such precious & hard-saved $$$ for just ONE movie? Could have even gone to the cinema to watch it on huge screens for at least 18 times & that even with $$ left over for snacks!!

To cut a long story short, I managed to select a couple of movie titles which we've not watched yet. And these cost me only RM25 each!


Well, that should last us at least a couple of weeks till we go hunting for new titles...hehe....

To end this post, Lot 10 had 3 visitors last weekend, namely KL & family. As always, such times spent with KL were hectic...especially for this ole inmate. Watch out for new pics that me took of KL recently in her slide show...sincere apologies for the delay...this ole man needs time to recover. Haha!

October this year has been a great month for Lot 10 inmates...if only it lasts & lasts so...

So here's me wishing you guys a great week ahead!
