PANASONIC ANNOUNCES
AVAILABILITY AND PRICING FOR DMP-B15, THE WORLD'S FIRST AND ONLY PORTABLE
BLU-RAY DISC PLAYER
BD Live and VIERA CAST™ Internet Accessibility Featured On
Innovative Blu-ray Player
SECAUCUS, NJ (June 1, 2009)
– Panasonic,
a major developer and contributor to the success of the Blu-ray Disc
format, announced
the availability and pricing for the world's first portable Blu-ray
player, the Panasonic DMP-B15. Designed to provide the ultimate High Definition
Blu-ray experience for those on the go, the B15 features a high quality
8.9-inch WSVGA LCD screen and includes Panasonic's VIERA CAST™ Internet
accessibility and BD Live functionality, as well as a SD Memory Card
slot. The B15
will be available in June and will have an SRP of $799.95.
The
DMP-B15 includes all the technology found in its stand-alone counterparts, the
DMP-BD60, DMP-BD80 and the VHS-Blu-ray dual player DMP-BD70V. Image quality is
of the highest level, thanks to PHL Reference Chroma Processor Plus technology,
developed in collaboration with Panasonic Hollywood Laboratory.
The
PHL Reference Chroma Processor Plus is a high quality image-processing
technology
that precisely processes each pixel of the Blu-ray Disc™ video signal
in the vertical direction. It reproduces color data with twice the accuracy of
conventional systems, resulting in faithful and sharp colors.
"As
a pioneer in the development of DVD and Blu-ray expertise, Panasonic has always
been at the forefront in developing cutting-edge, consumer friendly technology.
Panasonic was the first company to bring to market a portable DVD player and
stand- alone Blu-ray players to feature Bonus View and BD Live; and with the
B15 we continue that tradition of being first to market with unique technology,"
said Richard Simone, Director, Entertainment Group, Panasonic Consumer
Electronics Company. "The B15 is a unique and versatile High Definition
player that gives the consumer the ultimate entertainment experience, whether
traveling or in the home as either an additional Blu-ray player or the primary
source for 1080p viewing. Because it also features the VIERA CAST
functionality, the B15 can transform any TV into an IPTV with the capability to
access select web sites. At a time when many families own multiple TVs, the
B15 provides a number of entertainment options, giving them the ability to
enjoy HD video in any room where there is an HDTV."
Like
Panasonic's three stand-alone Blu-ray players, the DMP-B15 includes VIERA
CAST functionality. This distinctive application gives the consumer access to
select Web sites, including Amazon Video-on-Demand, a streaming video service
that gives the consumer access to more than 40,000 titles; YouTube™;
Google Picasa Web Album™; Bloomberg and a weather channel. The Amazon VOD
will be available in late June. VIERA CAST does not require an external set-top
box, nor is there a fee for the service. And, as additional web sites are added
to the service, they will automatically appear. Viera CAST and BD-Live features
require an Internet connection via the LAN port.
Ease
of use is an important element in Panasonic's products and the DMP-B15,
with a 2.5 hour rechargeable battery, is designed with that in mind. In
addition to its use as a portable player, the consumer can connect it to an
HDTV via HDMI cable, and use it as a stand-alone Blu-ray Disc player. The
player can also be connected to an HD-Audio compatible AV receiver with a home
theater speaker system, enabling the consumer to enjoy movies with outstanding
surround sound. To accommodate the traveler, the DMP-B15 offers an optional
headrest mounting bracket for in-car use. Like all Panasonic Blu-ray players,
the B15 features an SD Memory Card slot that allows the consumer to view and
share digital photos, as well as HD video recorded on a SD card.

REDMOND, Wash. - May 26, 2009 - Microsoft Corp. today announced the evolution of Zune, the company's end-to-end music and entertainment service, to a new platform and new markets. Zune will extend its video service to Xbox LIVE internationally this fall. This marks an important development in the Zune strategy and brings the Zune brand to more than 17 million international Xbox LIVE subscribers. In addition, Microsoft confirmed the next generation of the Zune portable media player, Zune HD. Available in the U.S. this fall, Zune HD is the first portable media player that combines a built-in HD Radio receiver, high-definition (HD) video output capabilities, organic light-emitting diode (OLED) touch screen, Wi-Fi and an Internet browser.
"The Zune music player is an integral part of the overall Zune experience, and we're proud to be growing and extending our offering beyond the device," said Enrique Rodriguez, corporate vice president of the Microsoft TV, Video and Music Business Group. "Delivering on Microsoft's connected entertainment vision, this news marks a turning point for Zune as it brings cross-platform experiences and premium video content to living rooms around the world."

Introducing Zune HD
Zune HD is the next iteration of the Zune device family and brings a new level of listening and viewing experiences to the portable media player category.

Users also will have access to the additional song and artist data broadcast by HD Radio stations as well as additional channels from their favorite stations multicasting in HD. If you don't like the song playing on your station's HD channel, switch to its HD2 or HD3 channels for additional programming.
· The bright OLED touch screen interface allows users to flip through music, movies and other content with ease, and the 16:9 widescreen format display (480x272 resolution) offers a premium viewing experience on the go.
· The HD-compatible output lets Zune HD customers playback supported HD video files from the device through a premium high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) audiovisual docking station (sold separately) direct to an HD TV in 720p.*
