H/K is finally getting into the Blu-ray game with the BDP 10. The Profile 2.0 player comes with the standard fare of Blu-ray capabailites of BD-Live, 1080/24p, advance audio codexs and a front mounted USB port for playback of DivX and JPEGs off of a FAT32 volume. The back panel is equipped with HDMI, Ethernet, optical, and coaxial audio outputs. Interestingly, the high-end Blu-ray player doesn’t have multichannel analog audio outputs. Guess you can’t have it all. 

Blu-ray.com states that the player carries a 700 Euro price tag and will be available sometime this month in Europe. Hopefully Harman/Kardon fans over here in the States will get a chance to purchase the player sometime too.
