Definitely some must have's for me in there. (although I'm officially for Blu-Ray ;))

Okay, here is my question. Is this going to send an HD signal only, or will the movie truly be presented in a high definition resolution? or is it going to be just the signal and when you get down to it, no better picture quality.

Looks like I will be rebuying a few DVDs.

Humm... DTS HD Looks good on paper. Anyone hear what Dolby or Lucas
might bring to the HD format?

So since HD DVD players aren't out yet, how would you play one of these in HD?

The third release of T2 is also in HD. I believe it was the first one released in HD. I seem to remember a ton of complaints about T2 never getting along well with Windows Media Player. Maybe those problems have been fixed in the past 2 years.

My guess is that those people's computers weren't fast enough to play the HD. It takes roughly 3.0GHz from what I have read.

One up-grade leads to another.

Software looks impressive... now for the hardware prices to come down from the projected $1k!

Will the older movies not originally shot with an hd camera just be upconverted?
Will it be similiar to watching older movies on hbohd and tnthd?
I would love to see new hd movies but can't imagine spending a bunch of money on tnthd quality re-releases.



but I probably will:(
