I see HD DVD and Blu-ray as high-definition disc formats that have more similarities than differences, but it will be a while before we see one device that plays nicely with both. HD DVD made headlines by be-ing the first one to market, with the Toshiba HD-A1 standalone HD DVD player. Now, the first Blu-ray movies have finally arrived, and the Samsung BD-P1000 ($999.99 list) is a solid Blu-ray disc player that takes full advantage of the format's abilities. Being an early adopter isn't for the frugal, but the BD-P1000 has the potential to drive the best home theater setups to new heights..
