A very interesting news post as appeared at the HD Beat website giving some details about the internal workings of the Toshiba HD-A1 HD DVD player. Although most of us can't afford one as of yet it is indeed very nice to know something about the technology used.
"There is a bit of curiosity in all of us. Even if you don't know how the heck it works, you still would love to see the insides of one of the new Toshiba's HD-A1 HD DVD players. AVS Forum user Zerokills just got his hands on his player and cracked it open as soon as he could. (original AVS Forum thread)
There are some sweet pics. Got to tell you that we learned somethings from these pics. First off, it seems to be very well built. The HD-A1 also has 1 gig of DDR2700 and the main processor has a heat piped cooling system. "
If you read further down the page it seems that the HD optical device used is from the soon to be relased NEC HD-DVD. Some pics of this are shown Here and a full list of pictures of the HD-A1 are also available Here.
