Samsung Launches The HT-BD3252, A Netflix And Pandora Enabled Blu-ray Home Theater

If you are looking for a new home theater-in-a-box, Samsung may have just provided you a solution: the HT-BD3252. This new and cool system has a 5.1 (1000 watts) sound system, a Blu-ray player, support for the latest HD audio codec, a microphone, Internet services like Pandora, Netflix and Blockbuster and an iPod dock (of course!). And to keep your cord tangling to a minimum, they’ve tossed in a set of rear wireless speakers and a WiFi dongle. The HT-BD3252 is priced at $799 and is set to be released this August.
