Thanks: Gave 64, Got 318 | CES 2008: Toshiba Press Conference ' Page 1 HDDVD : The Beginning Of The End'?
Here is a link to a report on the Toshiba Press Conference for those of us who haven't been sent the link by a Play-ground Fight Fan ... http://www.trustedreviews.com/tvs/ne...-Conference/p1
" I'm not sure what Toshiba had originally planned for its CES Press conference, but I'm fairly certain that it hadn't expected to be talking about one the major movie studio supporters of HD DVD leaving the format out in the cold. Jodi Sally - VP of Marketing A/V - took to the stage to express her bewilderment at Warner Brothers' decision to stop its support for HD DVD and instead jump solely into the Blu-ray camp. I have to say that I was a little shell shocked at Warner Brothers' announcement a couple of days ago, especially when you consider that some of the most spectacular examples of HD DVD's capabilities over the past 12 months have come from Warner Brothers.

You appear to have left the '?' from your title....or was that on purpose?

I was actually worried there that is was going to report that Tosh had announced the closure of HD DVD production lines, you wouldn't think a little question mark had such impact

Maybe not the OP's intent but isn't this thread just more anti HD-DVD pro BR propaganda? Do we really need more of that at the moment?
Toshiba so far it seems are still reeling and have yet to announce what their intentions are AFAIK.
