WiFi Direct has long been considered the biggest rival to Bluetooth technology thanks to the ability to allow devices that have been certified to connect to one another without needing a router or some other bridging device. The LG BD690 has recently been certified as the first Blu-ray player to attain WiFi Direct certification.
Considering that LG has already perfected Blu-ray players that stream the internet wirelessly, allowing people to watch Netflix and Hulu Plus as well as other streaming video, the ability to connect to other WiFi Direct devices is a great addition. The chance that the LG BD690 could essentially act as a device that would stream video to other WiFi enabled devices, even if they are not WiFi Direct enabled is reason enough for techies to get worked into a lather. While the demand for the BD690 should be quite decent, it appears Blu-ray consumers will have to wait a bit longer as neither shipping details nor price are available just yet.
