Samsung Electronics has decided to postpone the release of its next-generation Blue-ray DVD player to late June, Bloomberg reported Tuesday. The report says that the company rescheduled the U.S. release of the Blue-ray DVD player to June 25, a month later than originally planned.
The announcement follows Sony's decision to postpone the release of its PlayStation 3. SamsungĄ¯s Japanese rival Toshiba already started selling its own next-generation DVD players in Japan in March and will release them in the U.S. this month.
Sony and Samsung Electronics have joined hands to compete with Toshiba, which aims to make its own high-definition DVD format the standard in the next-generation DVD player market.
