Sony fakes Blu-ray playback [ Update]


In this rather embarassing episode, Sony was showing off high definition movies on their new Blu-ray equipped Vaio laptop when some troublemaker presed the eject button to reveal...a quite bootleg looking DVD R? Ouch. Sony's movies are still scheduled to hit in June with the Samsung Blu-ray player, no word on if they will also feature handwritten titles.

Update: Notebook review mentioned Sony was showing a regular DVD version on one laptop, unfortunately no one has "confirmed" which laptop this picture is from. If anyone who was there has pictures of the Blu-ray disc Sony was playing, we'd love to confirm this story as true or not. A quick explanation of why Sony bootlegged their own movie on a Verbatim recordable disc would also be illuminating and entertaining.
