And the flood gates are now officially open. Just hours after Panasonic introduced (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/panasonic-announces-new-3d-blu-ray-recorders-players/) its newest 3D Blu-ray recorders and players, along comes Sony (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Sony/) to brag about its first 3D-ready standalone deck. The BDP-S470, which is slated to ship later this month for $200, arrives with the ability to handle BD, DVD, CD and even SACD, with a 3D Blu-ray upgrade (via firmware update) planned for this summer. You'll also find BD-Live support, BRAVIA Internet Video, a USB socket for playing back media stored elsewhere, 1080p DVD upscaling and TrueHD / DTS-HD Master Audio decoding. If you were planning to snag a BDP-S570 (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/new-sony-blu-ray-players-do-3d-wifi-iphone-remote-more/) BD player or one of the BDV-E770W / BDV-E570 (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/sony-has-some-new-blu-ray-home-theater-systems-and-yes-one-does/) Blu-ray Disc home theater systems, you'll be elated to know that those systems will also get a gratis 3D update in just a few months, with exact pricing and release details tucked down there in the source. Time to pick up a pair of 3D Gunnar Optiks (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/gunnar-optiks-swank-and-stylish-3d-specs-get-the-hands-on-treat/), don'tcha think?Sony's $200 BDP-S470 is company's first 3D-ready Blu-ray player (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/10/sonys-200-bdp-s470-is-companys-first-3d-ready-blu-ray-player/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Wed, 10 Feb 2010 09:41:00 EST.
