Blu-ray player and hard disk recorder LG HR400 with LAN and DVB-T

So, why can't Yanks get ahold of these Blu-ray recorders again? All pent-up rage aside, what we're looking at above is LG's yet-to-be-formally-announced HR400, a Blu-ray recorder that will evidently be aimed initially at the European market. Packing BD-Live (Profile 2.0) support, a built-in DVB-T TV tuner and YouTube compatibility, this deck also arrives with 160GB of internal hard drive space for holding OTA recordings. Heck, this thing can even play back DivX HD files, stream media clips from other places on your network and upscale DVDs to 1080p. Is all that worth €599 ($852)? We're saying no, but you and your wallet can make your own darn decisions.

Denon has upgraded the "affordable" end of its Blu-ray player range, and has introduced the DBP-2010. The player offers Profile 2.0 capability, multiple format playback and 10-bit video processing.

There's 1080p upscaling, as well as digital noise reduction and an HDMI Source Direct feature for native resolution output. On the audio side, there's 7.1 channels of surround and full Dolby and DTS decoding.

There's also an Ethernet port for BD Live functionality and firmware updates, along with support for DivxHD and AVCHD video formats. The DBP-2010 will be available in July, come in silver and black, and cost £600.

Gizmodo:

Toshiba, the former leader of Blu-Ray's enemy HD-DVD camp, is admitting defeat in the most final way they can: By launching a Blu-Ray player.

The company's first Blu-Ray/DVD deck should arrive (in Japan first, probably) before Christmas this year, and "sources" say it'll be called the BD-18 (we think. The Google translation is sort of sketchy). We don't know anything else about the alleged player, but we imagine some Toshiba exec is sitting in a bathroom stall, crying quietly and cursing Sony.
