Source : GizmodoThe rumour implied that Toshiba wanted to compete with Blu-ray with new DVD players that made a big improvement to the quality of the image from these DVD media. The company revealed its first DVD player of this new generation. Alas, the rumour was a bit too optimistic.
The XD-E500 certainly improves the quality of the video playback; it is a good1080p/24fps upscaling DVD player, but the product remains a reader of DVD.
It will be necessary some nevertheless to manage to sell this product with a cost close to $150, that is to say triple that of a standard reader DVD.
