Panasonic DMP-B15 Portable Blu-ray Player

Panasonic, an important player in the rise of Blu-ray, further added to
its contribution to the new standard in media players by announcing the
arrival of the DMP-B15 at the CES in January. DMP-B15 is the
world’s first portable Blu-ray player and it sports an 8.9-inch
WSVGA LCD screen.

The product which will be available in May offers internet accessibility
and BD-Live compatibility. Even though it is a portable player, the
DMP-B15 promises high quality visuals thanks to the PHL Reference Chroma
Processor Plus technology used in it. The technology can reproduce
studio colors faithfully with twice the clarity possible with
conventional technology.

The DMP-B15 lasts three hours on a single battery recharge and can even
be used as a standalone player connected to an HDTV. The player rests on
a headrest, which is an optional accessory, for easy viewing while
traveling. So, it opens like a laptop and you can view it like one or
flip the screen completely and rest the player on a stand. An SD memory
card slot is a handy addition that enables viewing of media stored on HD
cards.

The DMP-B15 includes Viera Cast functionality which allows viewers to
access online content from sites such as Amazon Video-on-Demand,
YouTube; Google Picasa Web Album; and more.
