New HD-DVD standalone player announced by Toshiba
Posted on 16/03/07 15:20 by geno 888
Unveiled at CeBIT, this drive will be available in May, at a price of about £480 (about €700.00 or $925.00).
Even if this drive features a full 1080p video output, unlike the top-end HD-XE1, there are no analogue 5.1 audio-out connections.

$925??? To watch HD movies??? Hehehehe, hilarious. Where do they come up with these ****ng ridiculous pricing schemes?
Not sure. They can kiss my hairy butt, though. No way I'm gonna shell out that kind of dough for something that may be obsolete in a couple of years.
Well dudes, first its for a player, not a drive. 
And secondly, in NA it will probably be cheaper than in Britain.

Oh, please forgive me. I didnt realize it was a player. Sign me up for a dozen. Lets see, how much did I pay for my last DVD "player"??? $29 I believe I paid for a "player".
Of course it's expensive, try to remember the prices of DVD players back in the late 1990's. not quite $29 
give it a year, maybe 2 and judge again
