UK Blu-ray sales up 231% over last year {Engadget HD}
Jul 4th 2009 10:18AM Yeah it used to be the players are too expensive. Now, you can get a player for sub $200. The movies are too expensive, now it's common to see $10-16 dollar movies even at best buy. Keep talking, meanwhile blu will continue to grow its market share - in a recession. ANYTHING that grows its revenues in a recession, or even simply maintains it market share, is doing well.

Ceton has been saying they are coming out with the world's greatest cable card tuner for over 2 years. It's not going to happen.

May 25th 2009 12:22PM I get that this is the same as the old icon but it does look as though more of the chrome is positioned on the front of the phone than the side.

May 15th 2009 2:55PM You don't know what you're talking about. I got my Ccard HTPC working in less than 10 minutes with Comcast. Lots of people have. Some have had trouble, but I suspect that most of those people have signal strength issues with their service regarless. Also, the early production runs of ATI DCTs was riddled with bad units.

May 15th 2009 2:44PM Had lots of trouble with my Comcast DVR.
- Many recordings would skip every few seconds when the drive became very fragmented. The only solution was to clear out all my shows and start over.
- The UI was horribly slow
- The remote sucks. Some comcast remotes don't even have 30 second skip buttons. WTF?
- I don't know how big the internal drive is, but it's not nearly big enough
The main advantage of having the box vs. cable card was maintaining access to ondemand. But thats another buggy story for another time.
