    You can download the AVS HD709 calibration disc from the other forum: it's free of charge, works well and comes in HDDVD format as well. DVE, on the other hand, will be fine for your PS3.

    You shouldn't copy settings from the PS3 to the XA2 cause players tend to behave differently from each other with regards to gamma and color performance. A tailor-made calibration would be best for each player you own.

    I have the DVE blu-ray disc and I didn't like it at all. I don't see why they can't include color tabs with the disc to match the tv color to? They have too many calibration screens as well, i see no need for many of them. The audio setup is pretty crappy as well and the sound does not seem to be mixed correctly. I would like to find a better setup disc. But as far as brightness and contrast, it will get the job done.
