Thanks bro... i read on the net there are few argument AVC Vs VC1 which one is better... IMO it is a never ending wan.. If Baraka is on VC-1 IMO VC-1 come on top.

mpeg2 with unlimited bandwidth also not bad..

Thanks, I'm confused also as when I start to confirm the order they asked to check there's at least 1 BD is region 1 which is for US and Canada only.

Can someone confirm if Gladiator from Amazon UK is region free or not?

Saw the Steelbox Limited Edition - very tempting!

You mean this?

nice...

In UK this title will be released by Universal, so they'll not be getting the new Sapphire Edition series from Paramount. Regardless, both Universal or Paramount usually don't region lock their titles, especially old titles. And the steelbook looks nice, though of course the big rating logos won't be as attractive to some.

Paramount and Universal Announce iPhone Blu-ray Connectivity

Universal Studios Paramount Home Entertainment and Universal Home Entertainment have each announced plans on how they will merge future Blu-ray releases into the ever-growing iPhone world. For the upcoming Blu-ray release of 'Star Trek: The Original Series - Season 2', Paramount will allow iPhone owners to download exclusive content as well as use their devise as a remote control. They have named this feature "Mobile Blu", a term, we predict, you will be hearing much more about in the future.

Universal is taking it a step further with the upcoming Blu-ray release of 'Fast & Furious, which is due to hit store shelves next week. On this release, iPhone (and iPod Touch) users will be able to control the "Virtual Car Garage" feature, including rotating 360 views of cars featured in the film, and instantly view detailed information about the rides.

Future Universal films will introduce even more interactivity, enabling viewers to view and download exclusive bonus content on their iPhones, use their phone as a remote control, and even gain detailed information regarding the film and its stars in real time.

The Universal release requires an App (which will be available on Apple's App Store soon). The disc will also allow connectivity with viewer's Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Just found this interesting ARTICLE.

Nahh. I stick with my BB.

I am still using cheap handphone from Nokia No camera, no 3G and just a basic phone. If take out, sure ppl will It's ok .


Yday, went to check Harry Potter' BD. Only PCM

Just realised you guys have moved. Been a long time I visited since too busy at my current job. But the best thing is, I have resigned Yay! More time to watch BD....

Cheap-cheap oso, as long can make call, receive call, send & receive sms - good enuff oledi....

watching BD on the iphone?!??!?! on that lil' screen? I have yet to figure out how to make sms tone out from mp3 for that dang thing.

Watching thru it is pointless to me oso... but as a tool like a remote control then ok la, still acceptable... but then again, why the trouble? hehe...
