GO PANNY! They are the legendary Japanese CE company and much longer history than SONY I must say. I like them both actually...go BLU!

11:26AM PT - Expect to see this feature in all 2008 Blu-ray players as well! Including the BD-Live player they're showing of this year at the booth.

I love me some Panasonic!

Not a massive amount of Blu-ray talk according to Engadget, just a demo of the DMP-BD30 player. I really hope the BDA companies start making it clear to one and all that after the Warner decision, Blu-ray is the only logical choice in the HD market now.

BDA should have a stellar presentation tomorrow. Thats when I expect we'll get the meat.

Panasonic just introduced their new Blu-ray player, the DMP-BD50. Like we heard at the press conference, BD-Live is getting rolled out across the lineup and this unit has all the other goodies you'd expect in the latest from Panasonic: Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD MA, PIP functionality and the Viera-link functionality for control of multiple components through a single remote. Video processing goes through the Unipher processor, a combination of chroma and deinterlacing developed by Panasonic Hollywood Laboratories. Last but not least, this player gets treated to playback of SD-based media.
