It's possible we've seen the last of the $99 players; even the $199 pricepoint may be unsustainable. Or the $15.00 software prices (last time I checked the Arlington Wal-Mart store, prices were back up to $30 - not exactly mass market pricing). I'm sure the studios not only want to resell their DVDs on HD media, they'll want to sell them for a decent profit. I'm not sure $15 prices give them this.
Time will tell...
