Getting a free DVD or Blu-ray player with an HDTV purchase is nothing new, but Mitsubishi’s taking things to the next level: starting July 16th, authorized retailers will throw in a free Vudu box and $50 service credit with every Mitsu TV. Right, we know it’s only a $150 box, but remember Vudu is really the only player out there offering 1080p HDX video rentals right now, and it also supports Pandora, Flickr, YouTube and local streaming, so bundling the box is a pretty easy way for Mitsubishi to jump into the connected TV market without having to reinvent the wheel. Well played, we’d say — it’s just too bad the last Mitsu TV we played with was less than impressive. LaserVue, anyone?
