That may be, but they certainly interest the studios, especially Warner. All players introduced after October 31(delayed from June), have to be compliant with the new specs [extra memory, dual video processors etc.]. The 2 new Samaungs, plus their combo player are coming out just before the deadline-unless the deadline gets pushed back again.
Paidgeek has already said that no PiP titles will come out before '08, so we'll see if any players come out before that.
We won't even go into video 2.0.
Don't you just hate it when a new format can't even finalize their specs a year after launch? :-)
