While the LG combo player did a half ass job with HD DVD (no HDi support), this one will be fully compliant, thus carrying the HD DVD logo on it.

Still remains to be seen which BR spec 1.0/1.1/bd-live complaince it'll carry.

No price, feature set annouced so far but should hit the streets in late 2007.

Also, fwiw, rumor is that 2-3 more universal players will be out by the end of the year. In the end, good news for consumers who want to jump in without having 2 players but want movies from both sides.
 
So we officially have LG and Samsung with dual format players...I wonder who the third CE company is...SONY? :p
