Sony announces amazingly cheap 400 Disc Blu-ray Multi-charger

With the announcement of the Sony BDP-CX960 400 disc Blu-ray multicharger Sony seems to have made a great move. The device capable of storing 400 Blu-ray/DVD/CD discs comes with all the expected features for only $800.

Full HD 1080/60p and 24p True Cinema output and Precision Cinema HD Upscale technology.
The BDP-CX960 features an Ethernet port for connectivity to a local home broadband network to download metadata from Gracenote, software updates and to access BD-Live™ content. There is also an external port for local storage so users can add their USB flash storage device to support BD-Live content.
The model supports 7.1 channel Dolby® TrueHD and Dolby® Digital Plus, DTS®-HD High Resolution Audio, and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding as well as bit-stream output via HDMI. It is compatible with an array of video formats, including BD-ROM/R/RE (BDMV and BDAV modes), DVD-+ Video/R/RW, CD/R/RW, and MP3/JPEG on BD/DVD/CD recordable media and supports x.v.Color™ (xvYCC) technology. The BDP-CX7000ES also supports Deep Color via HDMI (v1.3).

This might be a multi-charger I might want to invest in, considered the fact that a 2TB external hard drive, necessary space needed for the content of 40 maximally used BDs or around 80 iTunes HD movies, still more than $200 costs.
I do hope the Yamaha NeoHD remote works with this Blu-ray player.

It’s dead, Jim.

And now, news of the CrunchPad’s demise has reached the blogosphere (twice-over, I must say), we’re here to examine the post-mortem. It was an ambitious project: an internet tablet meant to sell cheap. Everybody was waiting for it with bated breath, but it never came.

Dubbed the Playstation Move, the advanced motion controls on this baby makes it supposedly more accurate than that other motion controller from that little-known console from [...]
