I know BD is currently on 2x speed.

But how is this with Hd-DVD? Are they at 1x speed or 2x speed?

2x i'm pretty sure though its only avaliable in toshiba laptops.

So the Toshiba A1 and XA1 dont do 2x speed?

Why would a set top player go faster than 1x?

That said, the drives in the Toshiba are the NEC IDE drives so they are probably capable of faster...
