    Heard about these over on the xbox forum, I will probably purchase on of these players once they have been out for a while so the price can fall a bit

    It will be good to have a dual format machine as some film companies are releasing on blue ray and some on HD DVD so it will be good that you can have both without buying a machine for each format
