Toshiba doesn't want to go crawling to the BDA just yet, and there's no need for them to rush; they have plenty of other sources of income (including SD-DVD). I also doubt they want to try to make a Blu-ray player quite yet; not until the profiles are sorted out and compatibility is better.
I hope that when Toshiba does go Blu, they'll also offer combo players. I'd probably be the best way to get HD-DVD early adopters to get into Blu-ray.
