Target devoting more shelf space to Blu-ray

Been in a Target lately? According to VideoBusiness, since upping Blu-ray displays back in May, the retailer's upped BD facings again, from 90 to 150 titles. With several Blu-ray standalone players on sale -- including the store-exclusive Olevia box -- it looks like someone's feeling bullish about its potential. Reports also indicate some stores have installed a second Blu-ray demo area, with spokesman Joshua Thomas saying it is committed to creating a "fun, intuitive shopping environment", but we'd settle for a BOGO, or perhaps some more fully featured value-priced hardware before we officially add Target to the Friends of Blu list.Olevia's BD-100 Blu-ray player spotted in Target for $229

Mustek intros the BD-100, aka Sharp BD-HP20S

Yeah, it took a while for Sharp to actually deliver their BD-HP20S Blu-ray player (top picture). So long, in fact, that it seems to have cloned itself during the process -- witness the BD-100 (bottom picture) which Mustek is displaying at their CES booth. Strong family resemblance, right? Front panel displays -- match; button locations -- match; slot location -- match. That's three strikes, Mustek. Of course there's no way to tell who actually made the box, and although we haven't spent much time with the BD-HPS20S, we do know that it doesn't live up to the expectations we have for Sharp products.
One more pic after the jump.
