but again, given that both formats use the same laser tech, it shouldnt be a huge leap forward to get them both playable in one box, unless sony and toshiba throw a fit and threaten not to liscence said boxes...]]>Sep 1st 2006 10:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/01/pioneer-planning-hd-dvd-blu-ray-combo-drive-the-bdr-103/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/01/pioneer-planning-hd-dvd-blu-ray-combo-drive-the-bdr-103/Sep 1st 2006 10:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/01/pioneer-planning-hd-dvd-blu-ray-combo-drive-the-bdr-103/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/01/pioneer-planning-hd-dvd-blu-ray-combo-drive-the-bdr-103/Sep 1st 2006 10:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/01/pioneer-planning-hd-dvd-blu-ray-combo-drive-the-bdr-103/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/01/pioneer-planning-hd-dvd-blu-ray-combo-drive-the-bdr-103/
