Yeah they did. I guess all that CE support for Blu-Ray came in handy after all.

Exactly. What is Toshiba going to say if this trend continues with Blu-ray?

Next week: "2 weeks shouldn't be interpreted as a trend."
The week after: "3 weeks shouldn't be interpreted as a trend."
The week after that: etc, etc, etc...

HD DVD is like wrestler Matt Hardy. It always says that it will never die, when one day, it will eventually have to give up and call it quits.

I think it's fair to say as well as being losers and liars, we can now call Toshiba hypocrites. No doubt Toshiba will say this isn't an 'official' deal..

Toshiba is in desperation mode now....next, they'll claim Blu-Ray is an actual bomb that will go off in 2009.

w_tanoto · 01-27-2008, 03:31 PM

if that is true, then how come the HD DVD players sale goes down from 15000 to mere 1000+???

such a crybaby. and yet, they are doing the same thing BDA doing (TV+BD player)

DetroitSportsFan · 01-27-2008, 04:04 PM

They had absolutely no problem with all the free HD-Dead movies given away with players being counted in the sales numbers.

What's the difference?

Just been on a UK TV forum, and there is currently a flash advert for Toshiba and its laptop PC's. The text on the advert says "HD DVD makes crying....six times funnier" I'm not making a joke or anything, it really does say that. Weird or what?

You might have to refresh a few times to get it.
