IFA 2006: Daewoo's DBD-8000 Blu-ray drive

Everyone loves a good mystery -- for the first few minutes and then it becomes a bore. Daewoo's first Blu-ray drive appeared online a few days ago but we still don't know much about it. Apparently it was shown at IFA 2006 but the only info we can dig up is what's on the display card and according to that, you are peeping a Blu-ray drive/recorder. Now, we aren't quite sure if that implies a built-in hard drive or the Blu-ray drive actually records but nether the less, it's got a built-in DVB-T tuner so it probably does recorded onto something. The rest of the specs are right in the norm of a first gen-device with the notable exception of a DV input which would be very handy if in fact this unit does record onto the Blu-ray disc. Because of the lack of info, we cannot give you a launch date nor price, but if something comes through we will certainly update you.
