L.G. has announced a new combo Blu Ray/HD DVD player, the BH200.

L.G. was first to market with a combo player. Their first offering, the BH100, played both Blu Ray and HD DVD discs. It did not support HD DVD's interactive features, and offered a spartan experience for HD DVD users. The new BH200 proclaims support for BD-J and HDi, 1080p60, Dolby Digital+, DTS-HD and HDMI 1.3. An ethernet jack is also provided, and L.G. has hinted that the BH200 will support HD DVD's online features. Missing in action is support for 1080p24 and Dolby TrueHD.

The BH200 will be available in October for a suggested retail of $999.
