Samsung BD-UP5000
We're rather keen on the BD-UP5000. Firstly, it's a fully profile 1.1 compliant player, but the bonus is that it will also happily play your HD DVDs. That's right -- the dual format player has finally come of age.
As much as intellectual property owners would like a format war every week to keep those patent royalty cheques rolling in, it's hardly good for the consumer. We're pleased to see a fully-featured dual player on its way. We're just hoping it has a sensible price tag.
