Any more HD DVD player plans? - Blu-ray Forum

I know we're all here to support BD, but I was just curious if there were any more HD DVD players planned? So far there is only Toshiba and RCA correct?

That 1080p is due out later this year?

The RCA is merely a rebadged Toshiba. The only other company coming out with a standalone HD DVD player is Lite-On. Hopefully something much better is right around the corner but it doesn't seem likely at this point.
