Hualu Launches Blu-ray Player Trio In China

Yet another unknown--sorta--Blu-ray manufacturer has come out of the woodwork in China. Hualu, better known as China Hualu Panasonic AVC Networks, has released 3 Blu-ray players in the country. The 3 players are the BDP0801, BDP0810 and BDP0821 priced at the equivalent of US$292, US$336, and US$365 respectively. The first two models are apparently entry-level models while the BDP0821 is fully Profile 2.0 capable. China has been holding on to its own CBHD format based on HD DVD, but without any Hollywood support Blu-ray is slowing making inroads into the country though players are still very expensive compared to North American prices.
