I couldn't agree more. The only reson why I'm interested in this now is that it's time to replace my receiver. My old Yamaha doesn't even have component. I figured I might as well hold off until this fall and buy somthing with HDMI 1.3 so I'll be up to speed for a couple months, at least. Then, after the next big thing, and the next big thing after that comes out, I can take some joy in knowing that I had the best for 2007.

Thanks heavens speaker technology doesn't change as fast as this!
