Told you so:

(Although delayed until 2008, I gather...??)

**You didn't tell me anything I didn't know six months ago.

Really?

**Yeah, really.

Strange you didn't grab the opportunity to *put me right* when I

pooted the possibility of a 'dual format' ('flipper'?) disk at least a
couple of times in the exchange a few weeks back..??*

**No point. It is a dead end product. It'll never fly. At least not past
next year, anyway. The proliferation of dual format player will finish off
any notions of such a product. BTW: I have yet to see this product released
yet. Have you seen it?

Samsung are still promising one but it's yet to see the light of
day.....

(You read the thread, you find the instances where I mentioned it.)

Make no mistake: This battle will not be fought in the movie arena. It
will be a computer/gaming fight. Blu Ray has it won already.

Irrelevant, even if correct. We are talking *movies* (and, presumably,
music videos) here...

**Ignoring the influence of the computer/gaming industry does not make it's
impact irrelevant.

Agreed.
Personally I would rather pay £400 for a Blu-Ray player that doubles
up as a gaming console, than £400 for just a player. Having said that
i'd rather pay £200 for a universal player, so I think i'll leave it a
couple of years


*I'm being polite - we don't want 'Pinkyspeak' creeping back into the
proceedings, do we...??

**Nope. What happened to Stu? Is he OK?
