Blu-ray.com: The first low cost Blu-ray player will hit US shelves this fall from Funai, according to reports from Japan.
As we reported earlier, Funai makes low costs electronics which are then sold under brand names such as Sylvania, Emerson, and Magnavox. While no pricing or specs have yet been released, expect pricing to be lower than players from top manufacturers, which are expected to drop to around $400 (around €300) for the holiday season.
At this year’s CES, HD DVD announced that they would leverage cheap players from China to reach a wider marketplace.
