Toshiba Announces XD-E500 DVD player with XDE Technology

August 18, 2008 at 11:10:21 PM, by Sourabh Kalantri Rating: 0 out of 5

Claims it does more than just DVD upconversion. Hmm?

After losing out in the next-generation optical disc format war last year, Toshiba is focussing on plain old (and dying) DVD format. The company has announced the launch of new XD-E500 DVD player featuring eXtended Detail Enhancement that 'takes DVD picture quality to a whole new level.'

In addition to providing upconversion from 480i/p up to 1080p, XDE offers user selectable picture enhancement modes that allow for greater detail, more vivid colors and stronger contrast that bring standard DVD quality closer to the HD experience.

XDE technology also offers consumers the ability to customize their viewing experience to their liking with its picture mode settings. With these three selectable settings -- Sharp, Color and Contrast -- users can get the most out of their DVD movie-viewing experience on their terms.

Toshiba XDE DVD Player

Just to win some fans, Toshiba will launch a new website http://www.toshibaxde.com to "educate" us on the benefits of XDE technology.

XD-E500 1080p/24fps Upconverting DVD player is the first player to feature XDE. It also incorporates key features HDMI-CEC, DivX certification, JPEG capability, MP3 and WMA playback in its sli, high-gloss cosmetic design.

Pricing & Availability:

Toshiba's XD-E500 is shipping this month with an MSRP of $149.99.
