CES ~ Las Vegas.... "CES ~ Over-All Best In Show"

Well CES has been announcing their CES ~ Las Vegas Awards. And guess what product won the "CES Over-All Best in Show" award...

:musicnote: 'Dah... Dah... Ta... Ta... Da...'

The LG - BH100 universal HD-DVD / Blue-Ray player... Won...

It's expected to be released in February 2007 for $1200.00 (USD). That is if LG can smooth over all their legal hassles incurred in having the two format's. I am not sure if the LG - BH100 will have HDMI 1.3 though?

I don't think there are any legal hassles to be overcome. I posted last month that Sony and Toshiba has signed a marketing agreement and the we would start seeing dual format players in 2007. Zip said he'd believe it when he saw it, and we are starting to see them. Trust me, additional players will be on the scene shortly. Here's the link...

LG Hybrid Blu-ray/HD DVD Player Cannot Be Sold As Is

http://ces.betanews.com/entry/LG_Hyb..._Is/1168407626

LG may have a difficult time bringing its newly announced BH100 hybrid Blu-ray and HD DVD player to the market, BetaNews has learned, because it will not receive certification from the DVD Forum.

Kevin Collins, Microsoft's representative for the HD DVD group who sits on all the steering committees, says LG will not be able to sell the product and claim it supports the format if it leaves out HDi. Collins said LG provided no advance notice before announcing the BH100 player at CES, and noted he was surprised by the move.

LG plans to begin selling the BH100 in the first quarter of this year for $1,199 USD. But objections from Microsoft's Collins and other companies involved in HD DVD could force LG to make changes, or scrap the player altogether.

Just look at the VHS vs. Beta-Max fight. Just as they did now, Sony refused to allow pornography on its proprietary format, and they tanked soon after.

CES 2007: HD DVD versus Blu-ray - The porn industry says HD DVD
http://www.tgdaily.com/2007/01/11/ces2007_hddvd_blu_ray/

Las Vegas (NV) - Knowing their audience quite well, the adult entertainment industry holds their annual get together in Las Vegas to coincide with the CES. There is also a very pertinent crossover between the adult and tech industries - porn has a tendency to drive, and be driven, by technology. Which means HD DVD when it comes to high-def.........

One of the big problems they have with Blu-ray is its expense, followed by its market share. "Blu-ray has superior quality, yes," said a spokesperson for porn studio Bangbros, "but HD DVD is easier to produce, cheaper to produce and there are more HD DVD players in homes than there are Blu-ray players, for example in the Xbox 360."

History repeats.
