Panasonic's DMP-BD30 Blu-ray player lands in Middle East

by Darren Murph, posted Jun 7th 2008 at 9:52PM

Panasonic's fairly well-regarded DMP-BD30 Blu-ray player has been available here in America for months on end, but it's just now getting shipped en masse to the Middle East. Reportedly, the launch marks Panny's first foray into the Middle East's Blu-ray market, but with the DMP-BD50 just waiting to globetrot, we have all ideas it won't be the outfit's last. No word on pricing just yet.

Dubai would be a good place to pick up kit like this. The duty free shopping area at the airport is enormous and there are plenty of electronics stores in the city.

Wait...I'm confused. Does this mean we won? Or did the terrorists win?

I'd say we won, you think they have time to be terrorists when there watching high definition? I don't think so

Interesting to see the price, due to the duty free factor! Still PS3 must be attractive
