Since u have the xbox 360.....search the ebay for the add on...thats how i get it at the first place which is much cheaper with free king kong hd-dvd and no tax at all...as it is declared as an external dvd-rom for notebook....

I advise u to do the same too if u r really interested to get the tosh hd-dvd player...and I believe the price of current player will be very affordable once the new generation3 of toshiba is coming out before christmas....as I might getting 1 too..but that means another purchase of onkyo 805 needs to be followed up too .. and another visit to ikea for the new racking og those equipment . ..

silnecer bery powderful, support silnecer spend non stop

waaaa...perli..mana non stop..once in a year only maaaaa.....price is still the limiting factor....

I got xbox 360 and HD-DVD add on, I was a happy owner until last night xbox 360 died liau.. The infamous 3ROD attack me without a sight..

Now I really want to get a player.. cannot count on the xbox 360 .. just watch my matrix revolution in movie experience half way through only... almost finish and it died on me

Oh well, I already prepare the worst so it didn't hurt me or surprise me too much, now I really need to find a "not too over-budget" HD-DVD player to ensure it won't died off like xbox360.

I really like HD-DVD and the features that included.. but counting on xbox360 add on just don't really promise a bright future

One of the reason I slow down my purchase on HD-DVD is because I can't really depend xbox 360 for HD Movie, and yet I just order Hot Fuzz and Shaun Of Dead

now how can I watch it if my xbox 360 3ROD

kekekekekeke

i also wanna watch hotfuzz....worst cums to worst, i think i buy the 2 disc dvd version.........

To any interested parties, I believe Toshiba will be bringing in their entry level HD DVD players. Over the past two weekends, there was an AV Fair held at the JW Marriott hotel in KL. At the Toshiba booth, I saw a Toshiba HD DVD player and asked the sales rep. He said that Toshiba will be bringing in the product (plus support) for RM2500. Heck, it was even for purchase at the event itself. The model in particular is this:

silencer, one of my first ever HD DVD titles was in fact King Kong. It truly was a landmark title for HD DVD, a visual spectacle for high definition formats. Too bad Universal skimped out on the special features...

oppss... sorry, the one sellign in Spore is the HD E1, sgd 999

Thank you for the info, Bro tripleB..

Just check out the details from the URL you gave... is very nice..

One problem, the HD output is only at 1080i

:sigh: I thought RM2500 for an HD-DVD player with 1080p output is really a good bargaining in the moment...

aiyo where got so expensive HD A30 output 1080p/24 summore

only $319 + International Priority Mail 10-14 Days Delivery $116.00 = $435 : RM1,570. If sui sui kena tax 25% = RM392 .. net price online order from BH Photo = RM1,962 NETT (inclusive of courier charge and 25% tax

Thanks bro g5sim, I'm checking right now.
Now that's "sui sui" less than 2k

yeah its WAY better than the RM2500 1080i E1 (or the A2 usa version)

youre welcome you can get an american friend to claim the 5 FREE HD DVD too

Unfortunately that's how it works here when products are officially brought over. Back then the PlayStation was announced at a price of USD199. When it came here, it's not exactly near RM800 or something. It was more like RM1200 or something similar. PS2 was USD299, when it came here it became RM1599. The Sony BDP-S1 Blu-ray player retails for USD799. So why is the local version priced at RM4,999 instead?

:sigh: Malaysian always get bullied when it come to technology. It always have to be overpriced.

wow..that is much cheaper than what is sold in ebay...thats what i call "knowledge is power"...g5im

for free 5 hd-dvd..at least...get "seabiscuit"..great PQ..with "the jaw dropping" landscape view.....

bro, if order but when arrive rosak how?

2K quite a lot of money for me

hmmmm, for the free HD DVD, lets say if we send the dvds to fedex, or vpost, and get them sent back to msia, u think its possible?

Sigh. I need to ask the opinion of anyone who already has a copy of the 300 HD DVD (and using the 360 as a player). It was only a couple of days ago that I bought and tested the 300 disc. I only tested scene 1 and scene 14-15 in fact. Then I went on my short leave, came back, and wanted to show 300 to a friend. While at scene 14, everything was fine at first. While transitioning to scene 15, the movie started jerking very badly. Then it hanged on me. There was nothing I could do but shut down my 360. When I restarted my 360 and skipped straight to scene 15, it hanged immediately. I also passed the disc to another friend for testing. The scene I mentioned played fine, but in his case, the 360 hanged at scene 17. Now, I have close to a dozen HD DVD movies at this point, and none of them acted like this before. Is my disc faulty, or is there a known problem running 300 on the 360 HD DVD player? Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

I owned both 300 in HD-DVD and Blu-ray, I manage to finish the HD-DVD version movie once and also in-movie experience once before my xbox 360 3ROD and I did not find and jerky part or the movie hang in the film.. I didn't have anytime to finish the special features thought. What really happen I wonder , is very hard to tell whether is the disc or the hardware. Did you check with the disc? Maybe you can also check your hardware by playing other tittle too, to see whether it play stable. Sometime what I don't like about HD-DVD is the combo format which both side is playable.. easy to mess up with finger print.

My copy of 300 is working OK too....pls chx the disc surface....

No issue playing my copy of 300. Sorry to hear about your problem. Perhaps a bad disc?
