JAPANESE FIRM TDK is to make and sell a Blu-Ray based optical disk that will shove data along at a speed of 72Mbps and hold 23.3GB of data.
The machine, according to today's Nikkei Business Daily, is in the process of being commercialised and will be aimed at the TV and similar markets.

There are some problems getting the reliability of the high end disks right, the same newspaper said. µ

here is the direct link http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=11456

seems like there is trouble with the disks. Anyway it be interesting to find out the price and when it will come out. This may be good news for fnas of blue ray in the ps3.

Trouble with the TDK disk, nothing else reported.

It's pretty much confirmed but not confirmed that PS3 will use blu-ray.

Nothing special indeed, I already knew that Sony, Maxell and TDK are producing Blue-Ray cartridges.
