Sony brings Blu-ray to UK

Hot on the heels of the Blu-ray playing PlayStation 3, Sony has revealed details of its first dedicated Blu-ray player for the UK.

The glass and aluminium-finished BDP-S1E, which is set for a "summer 2007" launch, shoots out 1080p Hi-Def video from Blu-ray discs. That's pretty much par for the course, but this is also the first player around that can do this at 24 frames per second, accurately matching the speed of real film shot on a proper cine camera. This means that it'll be serving up your movies exactly how the filmmaker intended.

An exact release date and price are yet to be confirmed, although some online sources are already speculating that it'll be on sale in May for a smidge under £1,000. Better start saving those pennies, home cinema nuts.

I thought they already launched the blu-ray player in UK.

They only had the one Samsung player selling across Europe. Now they have they have the Sony standalone, in addition to the Sony Trojan horse.

And btw, Trojan horses aren't necessarily bad things. Historically they do win wars. :)

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
