Toshiba BDX2000 Blu-ray player coming November for $250, gives HD-DVD the final cold shoulder

And so it is. Toshiba, the one-time cheerleader for HD-DVD, has now officially gone to the azure side with the BDX2000 Blu-ray player. It supports BD-Live (Profile 2.0) and REGZA-LINK (HDMI-CEC), outputs 1080p at 24 frames per second, and does Dolby True HD / DTS-HD Master Audio… but really, all that needs to be said here is that it’s a Toshiba Blu-ray player. Look for this one-time paradox this November for a penny under $250. As for yesteryear, we think this line from the press release says it best: “This product does not play HD DVD discs.” It’s at once both sad and poetic that this very well may be the last official line ever uttered in the once-promising format’s story.
