Though the blu-ray 3D player has been around for several years most users have taken that particular piece of technology for granted, after all, it was only used to show blu-ray discs, 3D and some DVDs but that has changed with the Panasonic DMP-BDT220 Integrated Wi-Fi 3D Blu-ray DVD Player.

Though the blu-ray 3D player has been around for several years most users have taken that particular piece of technology for granted,Panasonic DMP-BDT220 Integrated Wi-Fi 3D Blu-ray DVD Player Articles after all, it was only used to show blu-ray discs, 3D and some DVDs but that has changed with the Panasonic DMP-BDT220 Integrated Wi-Fi 3D Blu-ray DVD Player.

Let's be honest, up front, a blu-ray player is a blu-ray player and most folks still use one to watch 3D movies and high-quality DVDs, but Panasonic has changed that equation with the DMP-BDT220. At once, you have a WiFi-capable device through which you can view your source material - 3D, high-definition TV, high-definition sound or satellite radio - through any device that is recognized by your home network's router.

The BDT220 recognizes Wi-Fi Standard 802.11 b/g/n and so it will work with any networked equipment you have installed.

There's more to the BDT220 than that, though, as it is also DLNA-compatible so that any device which uses or understands the Digital Living Network Aware standard will also work with your blu-ray player. Does that make it sound more attractive to you?

If not, though, there's more as this blu-ray player not only enhances your viewing experience with its own proprietary IPTV/Viera engine and standard, doing so with only one device so that instead of having cables running every which way from your home entertainment center, you only need one HDMI input and the Panasonic engine takes over the rest.

What does it do? For starters, it delivers some fine color rendition as it brightens your video, while also enhancing edging, which may have been blurred by other players. Further, though, you can use the Panasonic to enhance your 2D DVD source material into near 3D material so your viewing experience is quite good.

The key to this, though, is that it is all done automatically from a box that will easily fit anywhere in your home entertainment center. Measuring only 19 by 7 by 1.5 and weighing 3.51 pounds. It's not a big unit, yet it does so much for you.

For example, it features a remote through which you can register up to four users and their own preferences. At the same time, the remote will also work with the networking side so that you can not only have access to content such as NetFlix or Flixster, but also YouTube, Facebook and other social media sites.

The key, though, is the remote where much of the conversion takes place as it take the signals generated by the player and turns them into the types of signal you are seeking, whether its 2D to 3D or near 3D (depending on original source), HDTV and more.

Yes, it's true that people have taken blu-ray players for granted for some time, but after the changes that the Panasonic brings to your entertainment center, you can easily see that others will be following with these changes and more. One other item is that the Viera technology has enhanced Panasonic's commitment to cloud computing and that can only benefit everyone.
