LG has apparently abandoned plans to ship a Blu-ray DIsc player this

incorporates HD DVD support too. So, at any rate, claims a memo
allegedly sent by the company's US sales chief to staff last week.

The memo, cited by consumer electronics industry-watching website CE
Pro, says the BD199 Blu-ray Disc player will not ship when originally
intended because of "uncertainty in this early stage of the market for
pre-recorded high-definition optical discs".
