denon_universalDenon announced the DVD-A1UDCI, a universal player that supports Blu-ray discs, SACDs, CDs, DVD-Audio and DVD-Video, back in December for the Japanese market. The company today announced [JP] it will release the player, which was scheduled for release in Nippon this month, in March 2009.

Denon is citing production problems for the delay. No word on consequences for other markets yet, but I doubt Americans will get the player in February as promised.
