I thought I would share this. $799 for an hd dvd player? Guess Universal and Toshiba can't say that they have a cheap player.

It'll probably be more of a collector's item than anything...

And some dumbxxx will surely buy it too.

Who knows, maybe it's the only one they have.

We should post this on all the hd-dvd forums in their deals area as proof hd-dvd will win the war..... bwhahahaha.....

What a joke... $799 for an HD-DVD player, and a rebadged Toshiba at that. We'll see how long this one lasts...

Just wait untill you find the left over HDDVDs for $5.00 or less in a box in the back of a electronic sections in Wal-Mart. I will have to laugh.

If I can find HD DVD's for 5 bucks or less, I would definitely buy some.

Here's hoping that happens and I can get Stardust for 5 bucks...hehe.

Onkyo should've stuck to what they do best. They sure missed the boat on this one.
