Third-Generation HD DVD Players Coming in October

The third generation of HD DVD players will likely be released in October, numerous outlets, including the blog FormatWarCentral, reported Friday. Toshiba confirmed the reports on Monday.

The three new players will be the HD-A3, HD-A30, and the HD-A35, retailing at $299, $399, and $499, respectively.

Pre-order pages were set up for all three products on Amazon.com Friday, but they were later removed. More details are expected to be announced at CEDIA in Denver next month.
