Why wanna get? I tot HD-DVD will obsolete? for example, no way I'm going to buy Betamax player rite?

but if its cheap, then ok lar

gogo2, for wat i know, u won be getting bluray player as well, until jack sparrows are available

so if one fine day, piracy becomes available for hd dvd, u will be getting one unit as well, no?

sunauto.. still deciding, wanna tumpang string lor...

wow ... can i tumpang too

u have to ask stirng

Latest update, A3 out of stock! So the fler is taking A30 instead and after nego, need to add US$10 and get 4 movies only. That means HD-A30 and 4 movies for under RM800!

HD-DVD obsolete? Then, how about DVDs?

Yup, some ppl are just waiting for the jack sparrow ones before they jump to the HD bandwagon provided it is dirt cheap.

Well, String cannot bawa balik too many stuff from the US I guess since a HD-DVD player with the box is still quite bulky. Of course, if he could bawa one balik, I would like to get the HD-A35 model. Guess, I'll PM him and see.


There are some eBay sellers selling the HD-A35 for around RM900 and comes with 7 free movies. This is a very good deal since all the models are below RM1,000 and it's even cheaper than a high end upscaling dvd players from Denon, Marantz, Pioneer, etc.

is it worth to bid this item

I think it is worth it giving a shot. If can get it for a good price then why not?

bidding rite now ... hope win this item.

those prices is without shippin rite? or included?
string luggage full liao...

Only option left is yeah_guyz, have sent a PM to him. Hopefully, he will resume the bulk.

dang, I shouldn't tell you my evil plan...

er... no need tell, avbody can see thru ur plan one, i know u also waiting for ps3 to have ahem's

sunauto, wats the benefit of bulk?

Actually, there are no advantages here for bulking the Toshiba hd-dvd player, just that we don't have to worry about the customs clearance thingy and the player is delivered to our door step. If you wanna find someone to carry the player back from the US, a person may only carry one player the most and not two. Sadly, none of my relatives are going to the US, if not, I can ask them to bring back the player.

I have contacted Toshiba Malaysia, they said that there are no new players for this year when there are at least 3 HD-DVD models in the UK running on 220V. Sigh ....

Sony pulak will be bringing their new Blu-Ray player that can output 7.1 analogue and output lossless audio via bitstream. They will also be launching their new Bravia Full HD range as well sometime around this year. I'm a little disappointed with Toshiba, they sure have a tidak apa attitude and they don't even bother to bring in HD-DVD movies, they expect us to import them from overseas. I spoke to one of their Marketing people and I told her, I won't be surprised why blu-ray is leading in Malaysia, the hd-dvd format will not go far with a pricey and outdated player plus limited softwares here.

the retail selection of HD-DVDs in KL also like mati already (not dat I bought any at cut throat pricing)... few months ago in shops like rock corner / speedy got 10-25 titles on the shelf.. now it's like 20-30 titles for blurays and 3-5titles for HD-DVD (like clearance stocks).. haha!

Speedy Penang lagi teruk lah, not a single HD-DVD title for sale. My previous trip to Speedy Midvalley, I only saw a few HD-DVD titles like Hot Fuzz, 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Hulk, Transformers, Mr Bean's Holiday, etc. I guess Berjaya HVN have stopped imported them oredi. It's a pity lah since I have no complaints with the HD-DVD format and if Paramount and Universal pergi to Blu-Ray, then I guess I'll dump all my $$$ on a high end blu-ray player instead with profile 2.0 ready but if both formats will be around like DVD Audio and SACD, I'll support both of them lor. Apa boleh buat since I do have a number of my favourite movies from Universal and Paramount.

HD DVD isn't entirely dead here yet, I saw Bourne Ultimatum and Evan Almighty at Speedy Subang Parade yesterday.Finally something new

Thanks for the update. Well, my friend asked me to check out those Video Ezy outlets as they're owned by Berjaya Group and that's the place to check out latest HD-DVD releases besides Speedy.

why bulk won kena tax?

those arent exactly 2008 hd-dvd releases...
