Sony to Release Cheaper Blu-ray Player

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: HDTV, Home Entertainment, Misc. Tech, Movies, Video Games,

Sony has decided to release a less expensive Blu-ray disc player early this summer. The BDP-S300 will retail for $599.00 and will still do everything that their BDP-S1 $999.00 player can do in an attempt to lure other customers into adopting their HD format. Toshiba has already released a rival HD DVD for $499.99. Fickle consumers, with the exception of heavy PS3 players, seem to be waiting to purchase either of them, hoping that the market will decide to choose one technology over another. We think Sony and Samsung (who also uses Blu-ray technology) may have their price points a bit too high considering you can now buy a HD DVD player for around $50.00.

Cal Spas Creates Ultimate Outdoor Theatre

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Design, HDTV, Home Entertainment, Misc. Tech, Movies, Music, Video Games,

Cal Spas has dreamed up an Ultimate Outdoor Theatre for the ultra-rich. Featuring an anti-glare, anti-fog 63-inch LCD HDTV with surround sound, a Sirius satellite radio receiver, hook-ups for your fave game system, an iPod docking station, and a DVD/CD Player. It also contains a 5-burner barbecue grill, a wet bar with bar stools, 2 weatherproof recliners and 2 fire pits. We’re thinking that although Cal Spas has not yet released a price, if you have to ask what it costs, you probably cannot afford it.
