For a limited time, Amazon.com is offering the PlayStation 3, their Blu-ray remote, and the Blu-ray disc of The Fifth Element for $399:

PS3 Blu-ray Bundle

This is essentially getting you the remote and movie for free, which, if purchased separately on Amazon, would cost an additional $34.94!

The PlayStation 3 remains the only Blu-ray capable player that I can recommend to anyone. It's the only player that supports all the features that appear on Blu-ray discs, including lossless sound, Bonus View Picture-in-Picture effects, and BD-Live network features. All at a price that puts the standalone players from Sony and others to shame.

Even if you never plan on playing games, this is a good deal! We'll probably not see reasonably priced, full-featured Blu-ray players for a couple of more months, if not until the holidays.

We'll probably see more deals of this type in the future, but if you want to jump on this one, Amazon says you've got until 11:59pm PST on Monday, May 26th, 2008 to do so.

Thanks to reader Ron H. for passing this along!
