[KenW]

a clock spider?

LOL...love that pic. Have to admit that it gave me the willies and made me laugh at the same time. HATE SPIDERS!! Ever since I saw the original Fly movie, they've given me the shivers.

[DigiPete]

I'll be going home in a bit, and I'll post pics....

Hint, it can play: Redbook and Dolby True HD

[Yikes]

Toshiba HD Player

[DigiPete]

Yup

Just watched Phantom, awesome!! Now I need a 1080p set to replace my 720p set

[DigiPete]

The Toshiba HD-A2. My digital cameral is broken, so I picked these off another forum.

Excuse me for being blunt but, how much?

If anyone has this DVDP (and a capable camera) can post shots of the same DVD at 480p vs 720p (or 1080i) I'd love to see the differences.

same

I?m going to hold out to see which format wins. I?m on my 4th SACD/DVD-A player, and I?ve just committed myself to purchasing a 5th (SACD/CD Only). I?m really not that critical of video performance. Not to mention the fact that I don't watch that many DVDs. Odd considering that I have about a thousand of them.

Got it from www.valueelectronics.com for $450, this included 2 free HD-DVDs, and Toshiba is offering another 3 free HD-DVDs on a seperate offer...

I decided that I am only going to rent (Netflix stocks HD-DVDs)

so if this format looses in the long run, I will not have invested in a personal library, just the cost of the player.

In the mean time there are over 150 titles out, so the pickin's are improving.

I have the 200 dollar HD DVD player for the 360 and wow... its like putting on a pair of glasses. I also do the Netflix renting since they are still too expensive. I also don't want to get stuck in a format but I do believe HD DVD will in fact come out on top.

Thats cool that Netflix is adding HD-DVD titles without charging more for subscriptions.
