LG Electronics announced this week that their latest Blu-ray player, the BD390, not only has Wi-Fi, but is also the first Blu-ray player to support DivX HD video.

We all know that HD video uses a huge amount of digital storage space. What's good about the player supporting DivX is it allows you to keep the HD quality of the video while reducing the file size. Approximately two hours of DivX HD video can fit on an 8GB media card. With the BD390, you can play DivX video up to HD 1080p burned to DVDs or stored on USB flash drives. DivX HD 1080p content can also be streamed directly from a network with a DLNA server.

The BD390 has 1GB of built-in memory so you can view BD-Live content from your Blu-ray movies without the need for an external flash drive. You can also stream movies, videos etc. to your TV using Netflix and YouTube by connecting it to your home network through its WiFi connection or ethernet port. Other features include 7.1 channel audio outputs, NetCast Entertainment Access, LG SimpLink Connectivity and Standard DVD Up-Scaling via HDMI output.

The LG BD390 is available now for $399.99.
