With a little voodoo magic Vudu might have a chance to kill Blu-ray.  The Vudu BX100 now retails for $300, but that’s with $200 movie credit for a limited-time promotion.  So basically you’re paying $100 for the machine, which allows you to tap to more than 1,100 HD and HDX movie rentals at $4-6 a pop.  This is even more movies than what XBOX Live Marketplace and Apple iTunes offer at the moment.  This is due to Vudu’s  commitment to add 150 HD flicks per week in October, and it’s still going strong.  So are you ready to jump to HD movie downloads or are you sticking with Blu-ray?  [Crave]

Bang & Olufsen's BeoSound 5 controller in the wild?

We’re still retaining a slight bit of disbelief here, but the long teased BeoSound 5 controller could be awfully close to a formal release. Judging by scads of cryptic (and probably diluted) hints and just two images (one above, one after the break), we’re led to believe that this here device will sit atop one’s table and enable users to flip through multimedia and play back tunes through their Bang & Olufsen gear. The sell, obviously, is the design. Truth be told, this thing looks like something a few years ahead of its time at first glance, but considering just how ridiculous (that’s a compliment, we’ll have you know) the BeoCenter 2 looked over four years ago, we’d say this is just par for the course with B&O. Here’s hoping some more concrete information flows forth shortly.
