Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Pic and some info on Toshiba's new HD-DVD player

www.thedigitalbits.com. The pic and brief blurb about it are 3/4 down the page.

Not really surprised about the pricing. The first year they are available I am sure I will have to sit out until prices come down. One of the really cool things of late though is the announcement of a couple of studios choosing to support both formats. Interesting stuff.

Wow, looks like the player would look very nice coupled up to a Harmon Kardon receiver!

Good thing, since H/K has totally dropped the ball on disc players...

How much would those babies cost in the early run. Come on big players...buy lots and lots of them so they'll come down in price quickly for the po' folk like me!

Well Dallas if you really are now poor it's simply because you spent so much on that beautiful home theater system and room you put them in.

Kudos.

Yeah, from I've been reading, it seems HD-DVD is on its death bed. If they've got no exclusive deal left with major studios (I think they have 1 left now), I'm sure Toshiba will bow out and try to work out any deal they can with Sony. Microsoft won't be able to prop up a format by itself.
