Europe gets third Toshiba HD DVD player

Unmentioned for North America so far, Toshiba has unveiled its third HD DVD player for Europe. The HD-EP10 follows the HD-E1 and HD-XE1, and like the latter, supports output resolutions up to 1080p. Standard DVDs can also be upscaled to match. CD, DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD-ROM discs can be read as well, and several forms of audio decoding are built-in, including Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby True HD, and DTS HD. Though the launch date of the EP10 is unspecified, it is expected to retail for €699 ($926).
