Well I guess advertising isn't the right word, but I remember someone here making a post about HD DVD players possibly being sold as upconverting players with HD DVD playback as a bonus. Best buy is doing that.

Search for HD DVD players on their website. The description of the A35 is "Toshiba - Upconvert DVD Player with HD-DVD Playback".

Kinda interesting.

Nothing new there. In their weeked Boston flyer, BB advertised the Samsung dual player for $799 as a "Blue Ray and upconverting player." They mentioned that it would play HD DVDs in very small small print in the description below the price.

Circuit City is also advertising in their site the A-35 as an "SD Upconvert/HD-DVD Player".
