CEDIA 2009

As reported here in July, Toshiba recently decided to enter the Blu-ray fray after its defeat in the high-def-disc format war. At CEDIA, we'll finally see the first fruit of that decision—the BDX2000, which should be available in November for $250. This Profile 2.0 (BD-Live) player offers 1080p/24 output, decoding of Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, AVCHD playback, and an SD card slot, into which you must insert a module with at least 1GB for BD-Live operation since the player doesn't have enough onboard memory.
