I love watching Blu-rays on my PS3 and Panasonic HDTV, well it looks like car guys will be able to enjoy hi-def picture quality in their cars. Panasonic in Japan just released their new in-car Blu-ray players. The Panasonic CY-BB1000D is the first in-car Blu-ray player and it comes with an HDMI input, 7-inch screen display with 1280×720 resolution. It also supports Bonus View content with Blu-rays that are compatible.
The player is rated at 50W through four channels and also has an SD card slot that allows users to view AVCHD-encoded H.264 movies from camcorders. It also plays DVDs and has 5.1-channel audio support and Dolby TrueHD as well as DTS-HD surround sound. What makes the new Panasonic Blu-ray player even cooler is the built-in 80GB hard drive to store music and movies.
And if that is not cool enough it also includes a USB cable to connect your iPods and iPhones to play through the device, as wel as Bluetooth to sync your headsets and cellphones to. The two Panasonic Blu-ray players will go for $1,060 and $3,874 in Japan. No word on when it come to the USA.
