Moser Bear HD Dvd's will be out soon [sooner than you think!]
Most biggies like Microsoft are backing HD Dvds. HD DVDs seem to be winning the HD-bluray battle as they are closer to reality in terms of implementation and will not end up confusing the consumer [he still suffers from VCD DVD confusion bluray might be too much for him].
Right now HD DVD seems the way to go.
off topic: Ive heard enough of "why doesn't my CD writer play DVDs from my friends" i don't want to hear "can i transfer bluray through blue tooth!"
