Toshiba XDE600KE
Released December, 2009
The Pros:The sharpness Extended Detail Enhancement sharpens scenes nicely without adding halos or other artifacts. Very thin, light build quality. Decent playback quality for the price.
The Cons:The colour and contrast Extended Detail Enhancement options are pretty much useless on a newer model HDTV. Automatically stretches 4:3 aspect ratio media to 16:9 with no way to change it. Included remote control has very small, hard to use buttons.
The Toshiba XDE600KE is an upscale DVD player targeted primarily towards non-US countries that haven’t yet quite warmed up to the Blu-ray disc revolution. It is currently un-priced, but likely to appear in the European market sometime during the fourth quarter of 2009.

And it is essentially an upgrade from the XDE500 model, as it is supposed to offer dramatically improved 1080P upconversions; Toshiba’s proprietary REGZA link technology; and a much touted USB port for viewing pictures, playing MP3s, and even accessing DivX movies. Like its predecessor, the Toshiba XDE600KE is expected to include their “XDE” post-processing engine, which delivers three major enhancements: sharpness, color, and contrast.
