I plan on getting the PS3 later this year. But in the meantime, I'm going to be enjoying my "dead" HD-DVD player.

Yes (or, my parents are. I'm going to rely on my laptop for the next four years and hope that when I get it in August it'll have blu-ray capacity).

Eh, maybe. I want to invest in something that will last longer than this format war did so I'll probably bide my time for now. That and I need something HD other than my computer monitor to watch it on. tongue
