The new Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive will be the cheapest HD-DVD player on the market when it's released later this year, according to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft's director of global marketing, Albert Penello.

A recent blog entry by 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft employee Larry Hryb (aka Major Nelson), interviewed Penello who, when quizzed about the price of the add-on, said: "We're still thinkinꦓg about it. Here's what I can tell you for sure, it's going to be the cheapest HD-DVD player you can buy, without a doubt, when it comes out."

While this is all very exciting, what wasn't made clear was if the "cheapest player on the market" claim made by the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft🔜 man was referring to just the cost of the drive on i♔ts own, or the combined price of the drive and 360.

Currently, the lowest price you can🦹 pick up an HD-DVD player for is about %26pound;400 - we'll hꦬave to wait for further announcements to see if the combined cost of an Xbox 360 and HD-DVD add-on will be less than that.
