Posted on February 10, 2010 | No Comments
Ready or not, 3D Blu-ray movies are coming and the new Sony BDP-S470 is ready to handle all of them -- once Sony outs the necessary firmware. The same goes for the previously-announced BDP-S570 player and BDV-E770W and BDV-E570 HTIB systems. All these systems will be rocking 3D movies soon. The new S470, however, is just curiously $20 more than the S370 and a few dollars less than the flagship S570 besides the fact that all three models are nearly identical.

Toshiba's first Blu-ray recorders are on their way, and the company also announced [JP] new TVs with built-in Blu-ray players today. While these TVs are nothing new (in Japanese stores, at least), it's the first time for Toshiba to offer devices like this.
