Sony has just announced the launch of its first standalone 3D-ready Blu-Ray player, the BDP-S470. The device will receive a firmware upgrade this summer that will let users view 3D content with the player. The BDP-S470 also streams content from Amazon, Netflix, YouTube, Slacker, NPR, Sony, and others.

Besides the S470, some Sony Blu-Ray players that are already available will be capable of displaying 3D content due to the same firmware upgrade. The S470 will go on sale this month for $200.
