"To thwart Sony, Toshiba has reached a bargain with Chinese manufacturers. By making its technology available to them, Toshiba hopes to get cheaper HD DVD players in the stores months ahead of Sony, Panasonic and other Blu-ray companies...Toshiba, industry analysts say, also knows that DVDs became a mass market item in the United States after low-priced models arrived from China and filled big-box retailers like Wal-Mart." "In September, two of China`s largest made-to-order DVD makers, Amoi and JiangKui, said they would start using Toshiba`s HD DVD format to produce high-definition disc players for other companies as early as next year." Any development that moves blue laser players into high volume should be a distinct positive for SIGM, IMO. |
