Panasonic to bring Blu-Ray to a Din near you!

Panasonic's in car Blu-ray player

Not only can you have HD Radio in your car, but soon you will have HD Movies in there too. Panasonic displayed a Blu-Ray single din player for blu-ray playback, and is equipped with HDMI. Not sure the relevance of having HD in car would be as of now, but i’m sure in a few years, it’ll be as common as some of the other gadgets we put in our cars today.
Looks like the Blu-Ray opposition is setting blu-ray through the same paces that DVD went through, but at a much faster rate. First home theaters and games, then pc’s, and now automobiles? Time will tell, the format wars continue.
