There are numerous rumors going around, but, by most accounts, the PS3 is not likely to be released this Spring (parts, inter-operability, cell chip, etc). At best, Sony will have a Fall release for the new console and, unfortunately, there's even the possibility of a Spring 2007 release. Until Sony makes an official announcement, no one really knows.What people need to keep in mind about Blu-Ray/HD-DVD is that all of the major studios will release product in the Blu-Ray format, but some studios do not plan to release any content in the HD-DVD format.
Many who have seen Toshiba's latest demos of HD-DVD vs DVD say that, while the HD-DVD image is wonderful, the DVD image was not of the same quality they get with their own DVD player. An apples to oranges comparison is acceptable in this case (duh), but comparing a fresh picked apple to a rotting orange is rather suspect. Sort of like comparing an FIM SACD or AIX DVD-A to a 1983 CD.
