According to the manual, the new IS in North America can only play DVD and not the blu-ray. Only the models sold in Japan have the blu-ray capability.

It would be interesting to see the unpublished feature. Please post the results.

Either you got the hook up or the manual is wrong. I am sure we'll have some validation today!

Ok, just checked. My case for Ratatouille says Blu-Ray, but the disc doesn't. Too bad I can't blame this on a child...
