This is to same as the Model 60 but has a HDMI cable. The model 60 sells for about $37 cheaper, so get the 60 and spend $10 for a HDMI cable and save $27.
The page for the model 60 has over 300 reviews. You need only 1 objective and professional review — go to CNET and read theirs.

I bought this player back in Sept. 2009. I’m very happy with it. Apparently the Blu-Ray players take more time than regular players to load the discs.
Other than that, it plays great, both Blu-Ray discs and regular DVD’s.

If we bought and returned one more Blu-Ray machine, I was ready to return to a world of DVD, but this Panasonic Blu-Ray made me a believer. It played the Blu-Ray that glitched on our last player by another manufacturer, but then it played our nephew’s homemade DVD like none of our old Blu-Ray players could do and we were convinced. The Panasonic player mated with our cable remote control on the first try. I went to the Panasonic web site and quickly learned how to check the software version on the Blu-Ray unit and then was able to successfully update from version 1.1 to 2.2 by downloading the software, burning a CD disk, inserting it in the machine, and everything worked as instructed by Panasonic. When it comes to Blu-Ray, Panasonic is the only way for this couch potato!

The performance of this thing is amazing for the price point which why I gave it 5 stars. It is not the best player but it costs less than half what the best costs and does everything I need done.
I have been waiting a while to join the Blu-Ray era because I have hundreds of standard definition (SD) DVDs that I still watch a lot and the new player had to be able to play them at least as well as my trusty Panasonic S-97 (which was the best HDMI up converting DVD player for less than $200 five years ago). Virtually all of the reviews less than a year ago for all the Blu-Ray players said the up conversion of SD DVDs was poor except for the new Oppo ($400).
Well, the Panasonic BD-60 and 605 does a better job according to both DVE
(Digital Video Essentials) and the HQV Benchmark DVDs. And so does my semi-calibrated eye ball on SD DVDs some of which are hard to make look good! This thing has significantly better color balance, jitter elimination, etc. than the S-97 so I would have no problem using this player for all DVDs except for a few human interface issues (see the cons below).
One note for setting up for playing SD DVDs, I found that forcing the output to 1080p 24Hz, gave a noticeable “smoother” presentation with a very de minimus reduction in sharpness.
I expected the Blu-Ray performance to be very good and it was. It did not disappoint. As has been commented in other reviews the response time is noticeably longer than a regular DVD player but I can live with for the price.
Unlike as reported in another review, mine does remember where you stopped viewing the current DVD played whether you just stop, turn off the player or even removed the DVD. Obviously it does not remember if you load another disc.
Pros:
Plays SD DVDs much better than expected and plenty good enough even for a 65″ TV!
If you know anything about regular DVDs and HDMI, it is easy to physically install.
This player will simultaneously output HDMI, component and composite video with audio (obviously at different resolutions and number of channels). This could come in handy if you send additional signals to other devices such as other TVs or recorders.
Cons:
It is frustrating using the manual to perform the setup. All the information is in there somewhere but reading for comprehension was definitely an iterative process.
So many different buttons for various menus calling up various functions embedded all over the place - some that can be performed while playing but many halt playback while in the menu. In most cases you have to manually command “play” to resume playback even after the last menu is closed.
The direct access (without using menus) to SD DVD titles and chapters is very basic (as in brutally crude). You type in the number for a title when play back is halted and you are in the home screen and for chapters, you type in the number during play but nowhere do you even know what chapter or title numbers exist except by trial and error.
No Position Memory
No Quick Replay
The load and response times are slower than standard DVD players but I knew that going in and expected it and so far the lag time is not annoying but it is noticeable.

I have had this machine for about 6 months and have had no problems with it. I ran into a thing where I couldn’t play a new movie, but that was corrected as soon as I hooked the machine to the internet and updates the firmware. To address the other low review about load times, the reviewer is right that it takes a little while to load, but this model panasonic has one of the fast read and refresh times for this range. This is a very good blu ray player that will not disappoint as long as you read the instructions before you complain that it doesn’t do what you need it too. Even turning it off and restarting it is easily accopmlished with a favorite marker. Buy it and enjoy. I am purchasing my second unit.
