Announced at a Microsoft Hardware event in the UK; Mark Bennett of Microsoft's HD-DVD team has outed a redesigned HD-DVD drive coming to Xbox 360 in 2008. Details are slim at the moment, but I'm sure we'll be hearing more about this in the coming months. The current HD-DVD drive as we know it is also PC Compatible. Mark goes on to mention "there are more plans to incorporate HD DVD into the PC platform in the future."

Will it read Chinese CH-DVD (China chosen in 100% HDDVD exclusivity - grave news for falling Blu-ray) or 51 GB HD-DVD?

i dont think thats grave news for blu-ray seeing that china chooses whats cheaper for them to make and pirate. almost everything on china's market is pirated, including DVD's, so why not HD-DVD's?

@incoming00

Chinese producing HD-DVD (with different firmware for themselves) = sub 100$ players VERY soon, pressing factories for HD DVD dics - more $$$ for Hollywood.

Etc.

It doesn't matter what will happend inside China.

What's important - HDDVD's for Joe Public in 2008 in every 7-11 for 50$

Do you see why it could be problem for Blu-ray camp?
