Sony offers Blu-ray trade-in deal for HD DVD owners, in Switzerland {Engadget HD}
Mar 5th 2008 6:09AM There are many HD DVD Players out there in Switzerland. For such a small country there are many people who are willing to and have the money for early adapting technologies like this.
Sony BDP-S300 450$
Offer: -190$
POTC: -115$
Spider-Man: -125$
-------
Total: 20$
I'm really thinking about trading my HD-E1 and buying a new one. They cost something like 100$ on EBay right now here in Switzerland. So the BDP S300 will only cost me a total of 120$.

Poll: How many HD channels do you have? {Engadget HD}

First multi-region Blu-ray players appearing {Engadget HD}
Dec 31st 2007 7:15AM Oh great... it seems that "someone" forgot that BD has BD+ in Place, which can completely disable the player if it detects a modification. (Yes, this is not yet in place, but part of the BD+ specification). And: BD Players have to be updated regularly that you can play new movies, which will disable the Region hack.
I will stick with Region and BD+ Free HD DVD!
Sky Movies receiving name tweak {Engadget HD}
Dec 26th 2007 11:39AM Shure we do pay to much in comparison to the US. But as a Swiss Guy I'm very happy with Sky HD. The best i can "normally" get here is Premiere HD and thats just 1 HD Channel (Sports and Movies) + Discovery HD - boring.
Sky HD is the best HD Service you can get in Europe!
