Phillips has announced a new Blu-ray player. The two speed ???triple writer??? drive is also capable of burning DVDs and CDs, so only one drive is necessary in a machine. The drive will be shipping in August, while writable media (BD-R) will be available from July. Re-writable media, or BD-RE, will be available around September.

Pricing will be around 850 euros for the drive, 15 euros for the 25GB BD-R writable media and 20 euros for the BD-RE re-writable media.
