Samsung BD-P4600 Preview

Samsung BD-P4600

Talk about a super slim blu-ray player. Here is us thinking that only HDTVs can get slimmer. But Samsung is proving that you can give it anything, and it can find a way to slim it down and come up with a more modern design for it. Samsung BD-P4600 is truly a modern blu-ray player. It comes with the latest developments in the industry and is made to bring a more interactive blu-ray experience. Here are a few noteworthy features:

  • Wi-Fi: network blu-ray players are the future of this business. Using Ethernet is not as convenient as streaming content through your Wi-Fi network. You get a Wi-Fi adapter with your blu-ray player, making it easier to have a more interactive blu-ray experience.
  • Netflix Integration: watch Netflix movies right on your blu-ray without too much trouble. You need to have Netflix unlimited to take advantage of this feature.
  • Streaming: you can stream Divx, images, and … to your blu-ray player.
  • Storage: you get 1 GB storage for BD Live content. It’ll be probably enough for now, but I am sure newer models will add to this.

Samsung BD-P4600 is a very cool blu-ray player, but it will cost you close to $500. It’s a very fine looking blu-ray player, but if you are looking for a netbook blu-ray player, you may also want to consider LG 370.

Macs + Blu-Rays?

Apple fans have been waiting for too long for the company to finally bring Blu-Ray functionality to Apple Macbooks. It seems Apple is finally softening its stance and getting ready to take the plunge. It’s just a rumor at this point but CNET is reporting that the recent changes in iTunes indicate that Apple is getting ready to bring Blu-Ray to Macbooks.

Let’s not kid ourselves. Steve Jobs has bee vocal about the licensing issues of Blu-Ray, and the technology may die sooner than its predecessors. At the same time, Apple can’t just keep ignoring this market. New laptops are now entertaining blu-ray players and writers which means Apple Macbooks will be in a significant disadvantage without these players. Apple computers are great, but at some point you can’t justify not having a blu-ray reader/writer. The challenge for Apple will be to introduce Blu-Ray devices without increasing the prices too much. After all, Macbooks are already premium laptops.

When will be see Blu-Ray on Macbooks? The earliest chance will be on WWDC. That’s going to be one exciting event.

Your take: would you like to see Apple add Blu-Ray to its Macbook line up.
