 The end of the next-generation DVD format battle may not mean a long victory lap for inflated Blu-ray prices after all.Dell, which has more than a little clout in the PC market, on Friday announced that consumers can now spend less than $1,000 to get a Blu-ray-equipped laptop. More specifically, the Round Rock, Texas, company said that it's offering a Blu-ray disc playback option with its Inspiron 1525 laptops starting at $879. The Inspiron 1525 made its debut at this year's Consumer Electronics Show, where CNET Reviews offered up an early assessment: "Hands on with the Dell Inspiron 1525." The laptop features a 15-inch screen and an HDMI port for connecting to high-resolution displays and HDTVs. Things are heating up in the Blu-ray laptop sector. Last week, Asus unveiled its M50 laptop, which has an integrated Blu-ray player, though it did not offer pricing details at the time. But even at a relatively low price, is Blu-ray a bargain on a laptop? Maybe not. The HD drive technology seems to put a serious hurt on battery life. |
