Lite-On IT experiences delay in securing Xbox 360 HD DVD orders |
Ó
Last December, we reported that electronic company, Lite-ON IT, will start making HD-DVD players for Microsoft's Xbox 360. The company is a well known Taiwanese maker of DVDs and CDs commonly used by OEM PC manufacturers. If you have already forgotten, current HD-DVD players are supplied by Toshiba.Fast forward to today, DigiTimes reports that Lite-ON IT had to delay their volume production schedule as it has not yet received product certification from Microsoft, according to industry sources in Taiwan. Both companies declined to comment on this issue.
Shipments of HD-DVDs with the Lite-On IT seal should have started this April. Microsoft tapped Lite-On IT to take care of HD-DVD player OEM production to cut OEM costs and to prepare for the launch of the HD-DVD drives in the Asia Pacific market in Spring 2007. The source also said that Lite-On IT has devoted R&D effort in order to fulfill the deal but Microsoft has very high product standards which are causing the certification process to take longer than originally expected.

I prefer Japanese made products over Chinese. I have never experienced any problems with Toshiba manufactured products. I have heard that Lite-on drive are cheap and have read/write errors. I wonder if the drives will look the same on the outside. They better!
u piece of crap they are good they have been known for being good quality. research before you talk.
