Samsung's latest Blu-ray HTIB features just about anything an all-in-one customer could want; in fact we're not sure how you can even build a 5.1 system with rear wireless speakers and a Blu-ray player for $799. The HT-BD3252 of course supports the latest HD audio codecs like TrueHD and DTS-HD, and a mic for automatic calibration. Not wanting to leave anything out from its stand-alone players, Samsung has also included the same internet services like Pandora, Netflix and Blockbuster via the included WiFi dongle. Oh, and don't forget the very important iPod dock, we mean, who would buy a HTIB in this day and age without one? Not us, that's for sure.

rear speakers delivering notable audio presence and décor-friendly sophisticated style. The
system's 1,000W of total power paired together with Samsung's crystal amplifier and unique,

Master Audio®.

The Samsung HT-BD3252 touts exceptional video playback with its integrated Blu-ray player,

wired Ethernet port, or wirelessly with the included Wi-Fi USB dongle. Consumers can instantly
stream the latest SD and HD content from Netflix and access Pandora's library of online music
right on their TV (subscriptions required). Starting in the Fall of 2009, BLOCKBUSTER OnDemand
service will become available via a future firmware upgrade. For added entertainment options,
the HT-BD3252 plays a variety of audio and photo files from a networked PC, a connected USB
device, such as a digital camera, or even a portable drive for big-screen sharing with family and
friends. Two HDMI-CEC inputs allow for simple, high quality connections to other home
entertainment components, while an included iPod®/iPhone® cradle and onscreen display
