Tosh HD-EP10 'budget' 1080p HD DVD player due May

[Bob Crabtree]

May should see the arrival of the HD-EP10 - the third Toshiba HD DVD player to be introduced in Europe.

Like the HD-XE1 top-dog model detailed yesterday, the newcomer offers 1080p output, though we've been unable to get full specs to know if the fitted HDMI socket is a latest-generation V1.3 and also whether the player has any of the other plus-points that the HD-XE1 scores over Toshiba's first offering, the £320 HD-E1.

More.

It would be interesting to see inside one of these and the HD-XE1. At that price point they can't be using a P4 with 1gig RAM and RedHat booting off a CompactFlash card and doing virtually everything in sortware.
