If you can’t beat’em, join’em. That’s Toshiba’s motto when it comes to coming out with their first Blu-Ray player. Toshiba was the company behind the short lived, HD-DVD format, many studios dropped in favor of the more popular Blu-Ray DVD’s. Shortly after losing the format war, studios decided not to sell HD-DVD’s, putting an end to what Toshiba was hoping, would be one of their major success stories.

Now Toshiba has decided, after 19 months, to jump on the Blu-Ray bandwagon and offer a Blu-Ray player of their own sometime this year. No word on the model, where it’ll be launched or the price of the Blu Ray player. We’ll have more info when its available.
