All I can offer is that the site is from France, and the date in France right now is...

Oh yeah...April Fools. 2 More minutes and I will start my "Fox Blu-ray releases now have ALL bonus features like their 10 year old DVD counterparts!!!!!!! And now only $29.95!!!!!!! MSRP!"

ThinkGeek :rock2:

I love the "features" of that deck:

# One button transfer between Betamax and HD-DVD
# Play and Record both Super and regular BetaMax
# Blah, blah, blah
# Uses electricity
# Has a manual
# Something else
# Frakkin' sweet remote
# You aren't even reading this

More thinkgeek fun:
