Toshiba drops HD DVD MSRP, effective 4/1/07

At just about the one year anniversary of the format war, it looks like Toshiba is throwing the next punch. HD DVD will be one step closer to that magic price point of $299US, with the latest update of the RRP of their HD DVD players. According to a few retailers at the AVSFroum on April 1st Toshiba will change the RRP and the least expensive model; the A2 will now have an RRP of $399US. The A2 isn't the only model with a new price, as the other two models see a drop as well, the A20 will be $499US and finally the high end model, the XA2 for $799US. So if price was the only thing stopping you from getting in the HD DVD game and the Xbox360 add-on just isn't your style, then now might just be the time.
