Default Toshiba to make Blu-Ray players?

Wacky (and poorly written) rumour of the day: http://www.1080living.com/modules.ph...article&sid=30


'1080living.com has learned through sources in the distribution and retail business that the buzz is Toshiba already has a Blu-Ray player in the works ready for production for a September 08 release but now this has been pushed up to a July 08 release with recent events in the industry.

This would make sense as Toshiba is a major electronics giant and supporting Blu-Ray will only benefit the company in the long run. Toshiba is currently liquidating HD-DVD players for as little as $90.00 which many analyst consider to be under their cost but as demand dries up Toshiba is trying to cash in on last minute consumers that will be swayed by price alone.

One source cited 2 players are in the works with a price target of $250 and $350.00.'


You know what, I'd buy one. At least you know it'll be full spec.

If I were you I'd read that page a little more closely before I come into this thread like an e-douche.

I think reading linked pages carefully is a great idea under all circumstances.

Are you talking to me or him?

I posted the text from the article, then provided the link so nobody would think I was just making it up, or just plagarising without providing the source.

It doesn't get any more legitimate than that.

I'm just talking, no target in mind. I just didn't want things to escalate above accusations of douchery in the first degree.

Well, let's just say the other poster and I have a little history stemming from another similarly-themed thread.

So forgive me if I'm a little defensive when I read snarky comments from said poster on a completely innocent thread like this.

Don't give it another thought.

who is this other "said" poster? he sounds like a real prick.

i on the other hand was just point out that this is a non-news story.
