Blu-ray release on June 6, 2006?

[zombie]

This was posted at another forum from someone who appears to be a credible source. Until this can be confirmed at CES in January, I'd recommend everyone take this with a grain of salt.

"The Sony Blu-ray is expected to debut June 6, 006.

I say.... 006 for all those people familiar with my postings in my regular neighborhood.

Sony originally planned on having a couple models at different price points available to the discerning buyer….. but now it appears there will only be model that should have an MSRP of somewhere around $1300.(this model is much slimmer and compact than prior prototypes you may have seen.)

It will be at CES and they will be announcing titles at CES – which will be available for purchase at the same time the actual machine can be bought.

So, WHAT titles there be, inquiring minds want to know?

Perhaps one of the greatest movies ever made?...........Paul Bigelow and Rob Tomlin hold on to your hats !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why, Lawrence of Arabia, of course! (You two may stop reading now and daydream for the rest of the afternoon )

also.................

Fifth Element
Apocalypse
Ghost Rider
Triple X
Kung Fu Hustle
Resident Evil
There are some more but, I’m not at liberty to publicly disclose them all.

And to all those naysayers *****in bout how long a wait it will be before current titles become available in the Blu-ray format……….

Well, when Memoirs of a Geisha, Bond (with the new guy), Click, Underworld 2 ? do eventually come out on DVD they will simultaneously appear on Blu-ray for a seamless transition for the discerning videophile. There are other titles which I cannot list at this time."

If these titles turn out to be true it's a decent start. I'd definitely buy Underworld 2, Resident Evil and The Fifth Element.
