One of the things about popular films is that they are guaranteed to create a sort of pricing war in the online shops.
The latest Harry Potter film is no different. The more popular online shops are listing the pre-release pricing and the deals are quite interesting, though Play.com seems to be slightly ahead of the crowd.
Now what on earth would I do with a Harry Potter doll?
From FRLinux:
Me seriously waiting for hd dvd releases …
From Michele Neylon:
Steph
I think I saw HD and Blu Ray releases listed on Amazon …
I still haven’t got anything to play them on

Think, hd-dvd player from xbox 360 for 200 bucks. Then you only needs Windows (yeah I know, that hurts …).
From Michele Neylon:
I’ve been looking into multi-format players, but so far there aren’t that many on the market.
Of course I’d also need to upgrade my TV and my audio setup …
From FRLinux:
Audio setup, didn’t touch yet. Went for a new HD Ready TV though (Sony 32KDL3000, a multi award winner), perfect for standard streams and most HD content.
Bought a DVD upscaler too (went for the Sony rdr-hx750 since it was cheap and had hdmi+1080p upscaler) which makes a big difference even on normal DVDs.
The sound system would require a bigger place, so for my apartment right now, i left it alone. Besides, no full DTS-HD has been quite finalized yet.
From Michele Neylon:
How much was the TV?
I was looking at a couple over the weekend, but I got completely confused
From FRLinux:
Komplett (or peats even in Dublin) sells it for 1,100 euros, not a bad deal at all. It has all the things i can think of including a DVB-T for future proof.
