For ages now there has been talk of Chinese tech firms bringing affordable High Definition to the masses, finally Venturer Electronics have delivered on that promise. In Q4 2007 there should be waves of these cut price players flooding the American market.

As the price tag subjects there is a catch, these players only output to 1080i and not a Sony PR approved 1080p however as the majority of HD TV sets currently in the wild are not 1080 native this should not prove to be too much of a problem, especially with the budget crowd who wont be hooking these up to top of the range TV sets anyway.

Whilst I am not a brand name snob per se these are the first true budget players and those wishing to fully experience HD should hold on, no doubt there will be plenty of competition in the early stages of next year, and that can only be a good thing for us consumers. For those who cant wait expect to see these at a Best Buy / Wal Mart near you soon.

Now all we need is to convince the Chinese that $200 is actually £100… something our American manufacturing cousins have not grasped yet….
