Pioneer's Nameless, Future Blu-ray Player




Pioneer has also been demonstrating their new "Extreme Black Level" technology plasma display. This display is capable of producing true, absolute black-levels and is one of the most amazing and groundbreaking product demonstrations at CES. The content running on this demonstration is being fed by a Pioneer Elite Blu-ray player. Scenes from the Blu-ray version of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End are included in this amazing presentation.

Looks like a great player, Pioneer usually makes some great players. But the Elite line is usually pretty pricey, I'd guess this would be over the $1k mark.

I haven't heard anything about them releasing BD players in their mainstream line. I guess we have another day left though.
 
Wow. Can anyone sell a BD player for over $1,000 anymore? I think they'd have to pack on some extra features for that, like wireless HDMI to your HDTV. :confused:
 
Well, they still sell $1000 DVD players. It's all about the quality. I've never got why someone would do that thought.
