Let's see ... if you need an el'cheapo high-definition playback system then accept the potential of region encoded HD-DVD and their $499, 1080i/720P only (so far) decks. Alternatively, the $699 PS3 would be the el'cheapo Blu-ray playback deck.
So far, Sony is only losing potential sales due to not having a product in the wild. And these are list prices. No doubt we'll see some naked aggression from both Sony and Samsung.
