LG's Dual-Format Blu-ray/HD DVD Now Available

The LG BH100, the first combination Blu-ray Disc/HD DVD player that was unveiled at last month's CES, is now available at such retail establishments as Best Buy, Circuit City and CompUSA, the company announced today. The product was honored by numerous groups at CES, receiving CNN's Best of CES, CNET's Best in Show and the Popular Mechanics Editor's Choice Award.

In addition to displaying content in 1080p, the BH100 also upconverts standard DVDs to 1080i resolution.

My bet is that this device will sell very well and stores may sell out of their initial allocations quickly.
