Dell Offers Blu-Ray On 1525 Laptop

Over at Dell they are starting to offer Blu-Ray options for players and burners on their 1525 series of laptops. The option is available in either a DVD Combo Blu-Ray player at $280 or the burrer model for CD/DVD/Blu-Ray for $480.

At Fox/Business they describe the Dell 1525 as:

The award-winning Inspiron 1525 laptop features a 15.4-inch high
definition wide aspect display with 720p resolution. It also includes
an HDMI port for easy connectivity to high resolution displays and
HDTVs.

The Blu-ray player disc drive is fully backwards compatible, and
will play as well as burn traditional DVDs and CDs. Consumers can also
chose a Blu-ray burner drive, which is great for backing up and
storing important files like digital photos, videos, financial
records, etc. A Blu-ray disc will hold up to 50 GB of data, vs. 8.5 GB
available on the typical DVD disc.

The lightweight Inspiron 1525 is all about self expression,
allowing customers to complement their individual style with a laptop
that offers designs like Chill, Blossom and Commotion, or a spectrum
of vibrant colors, like Sunshine Yellow, Midnight Blue and Ruby Red.

It is only a matter of time before my vendors offer the Blu-Ray technology and hopefully prices will start to drop.
