Toshiba HD-A2

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Introduced in December 2006. The HD-A2 is Toshiba's second generation HD DVD player. It was superseded in November 2007 by the Toshiba HD-A3. It was also the first High Definition player to be sold through major retailers on sale at less than $100. These sales were limited quantity sales designed to make room for the newer HD-A3 model.
