WesleyTech.com is reporting that Samsung has cancelled their new flagship Blu Ray player, the BDP-2400.

According to WesleyTech, there is no explanation for the cancellation. They also note that the forthcoming Samsung combo player, the BD-UP5000, has been postponed until December. Since Blu Ray specifications are in a state of flux, one can easily jump to the conclusion that Samsung was unable to release either unit within the time window necessary to include the Blu Ray Profile the units were designed to implement. We'll see if that ends up being the case, or whether Samsung is scaling back their Blu Ray support in favor of a combo player focus that eschews partisan players altogether.
