Re: Oppo BDP-831?

I think the BDP-831 will be launched eventually, probably a few months down the line (although they would've missed the Christmas period). All the BDP-831s may have been stocked up in a warehouse, to be released when the player finally launches.


From what Oppo have said, the problem was not with manufacturing. And for an October 7 release, they would've made hundreds or even thousands of players. The problem was with the logistics.

I expect Will will be enjoying his player he has had for many months!

So they have kidnapped Barcelona and hidden them in a Turkey shed have they? Strange that did not make the news.
