This device will of course play HD-DVD at x2, but also DVD at 8x, DVD-RAM at 5x and CD at 32x.
The expected price will be around 500€.
Of course one will have to wait to be able to use this drive since there is no date for a real availability of HD-DVD media.
In addition, Toshiba has just announced today that the official launch of HD-DVD (drive and media) might be delayed, and instead of Q4 2005 it could rather be for Q1 2006; in other words at the same time than the expected date for Blu-Ray.
