Samsung’s 3D Blu-ray Player Available for Preorder

samsung-bdc6900The new technologies presented at CES 2010 are slowly but surely becoming available to consumers. Samsung’s new 2010 Blu-ray players, featuring Internet@TV and Samsung Apps, are now currently available for preorder—including Samsung’s 3D-enabled BD-C6900 which just popped up on Amazon.com for $399. Last time we checked, Amazon claimed it was out of stock of the new 3D player. Samsung says its BD-C6900 Blu-ray player is compatible with the 3D Blu-ray standard, and Samsung’s own 3D displays.

Samsung has also priced its BD-C7500 at $399.99, while the BD-C6500 should be retailing for $299—unfortunately, both are 2D. We’ll keep checking back with Amazon to see when these new products are available and in-stock.

How to convert your VHS tapes to DVD, Blu-ray, or digital
VHS tape lifestyle DVD burner combo deck

While DVD and Blu-ray dominate today's world, VHS tapes ruled supreme in the '80s and '90s. It wasn't uncommon for families to document birthday parties, holidays, sporting events, and other big moments in life with their handheld camcorder, recording the footage onto a trusty VHS tape. Unfortunately, playing those VHS tapes is challenging nowadays, as it's unlikely that you still have your old VHS player (or that it's even still in working condition).

That means you'll need to look into converting your VHS tapes to DVD, Blu-ray, or digital formats to take a trip down memory lane. Even if you're not interested in checking out the footage today, it makes sense to get the film converted – after all, those VHS tapes are slowly deteriorating, and if they go bad, all that footage will be forever lost.
