LG this morning officially unveiled its Super Multi DVD player that supports both the HD DVD and Blu-ray high definition DVD standards. At $1,200, the device costs about 20 per cent more than a Blu-ray only device, and it won't support all the interactive features in the HD DVD standard, but it does buy consumers peace of mind: whoever wins the standard wars, you won't be left in the cold.

The first Super Multi hybrid DVD players are expected to hit the market by February and a special model for PCs is expected to follow within one month.
