From Robert Silva, your Guide to Home Theater
Welcome to my Weekly Home Theater Newsletter! It is hard to believe it is August already - which means that it is the "back to school" season. Check out my product picks for great back-to-school entertainment. Also, this week I have a review of a very affordable Blu-ray Disc player that will tempt those of you that haven't made the jump to Blu yet. In other news, there is a new chapter in the DirecTV lawsuit saga.

Top Picks For Back-To-School Entertainment
Going back to school doesn't mean you have to leave your entertainment behind. Check out some great product picks for students that are perfect for a small apartment, dorm, or group house. Products featured include: LCD TV/DVD Combos, Upscaling DVD players, Compact Audio Systems, and more. Whether you are a parent looking for a great back-to-school gift or a student cashing in on that Summer job windfall, check out my suggestions for Back-to-School Home Entertainment Products.

Haier HEC BDP100 Network-Enabled Blu-ray Player - Review
The Haier HEC BDP100 is an affordable Blu-ray Disc Player that is both very compact in size and performs well. Besides Blu-ray disc playback, the BDP100 also provides 1080p upscaling of standard DVDs via HDMI output and also plays music CDs.

In addition, the BDP100 provides built-in ability to stream audio/video content from the internet, such as Netflix and Pandora, with access to CinemaNow to be added later via firmware update. To find out if the Haier HEC BDP100 is the right Blu-ray Disc player for you, read my Review and also check out my supplementary Photo Profile and Video Performance Test Results.
