Toshiba's new HDDVD Record Unveiled

Postby dolphinius_rex on Thu Jul 27, 2006 1:13 pm

CDFreaks has posted a news item with a picture of the new Toshiba HDDVD Recorder for Home Entertainment Systems:

Luckily the XBox 1 never took off in Japan to any real degree, as it would be physically impossible to store both devices in a single room.

And MAN is that thing Pug-fugly! :o

It appears that HD Beat borrowed their pics from AV Watch...

Couldn't you put an HD-DVD drive in one of those mini PCs and get more functionality out of that? :p
