If that is true then why is Toshiba releasing 3 new Blu-ray player models just announced at CES?

http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/toshi...and-bdx2500-do/

BDX-2500: USB port for Wifi dongle - MSRP $199
BDX-2700: Built in Wifi - MSRP $299
BDX-3000: Built in Wifi and 3D capable - No MSRP yet
All 3 are BD-Live 2.0 and do online streaming with CinemaNow

I don't think they want to crush Blu-ray because they would be crushing their own product. LOL!

Even Toshiba has moved on.

The Toshiba Cell HDTV was released in Japan last month.

The 55-inch model was priced at $11,230.

I'm thinking the 65-inch model for the USA would be at least $10,000.

I'm an old man. I'll probably be dead before I can afford this HDTV.

man, i wonder how my 8-bit NES will look/feel in full Toshiba HD hahaha...

It's awesome playing the classics on a nice projector, but it is a pretty crummy experience to play any video games on that aren't natively progressive-scan while using my 1080p HDTV as a monitor...

interlacing noise and latency kill when in 480i or 1080i modes... not to mention arse-terrible NTSC color conversion...

NTSC == Never The Same Color

hahaha
