Denon Previews "More Affordable" DVD-1800BD Blu-ray Player Priced At "Only" $749

Wow, Denon has introduced a "more affordable" Blu-ray player. Of course we have to keep affordable relative to the brand and Denon being a high-end name and all that means $749. That's what the new Denon DVD-1800BD Blu-ray player will cost you and it's not even a Profile 2.0 player. That means no ethernet connection at all although you do get picture-in-picture. If you do want some of the more interactive features found on Blu-ray discs, you can download them off the internet onto an SD card which you can then plug into the DVD-1800BD. Other than that the DVD-1800BD features HDMI 1.3a with Deep Color and Bonus View support, output of Dolby and DTS-HD audio, a 2-channel analog audio output for CD playback and standard DVD upscaling to 1080p. Look for this not-so-hot offering from Denon to hit shelves in October 2008.
