Considering I have wanted a Denon 2900, 2200, 2910... for over 2 years now for an upgrade, I am guessing that the upgrade to HD-DVD will be even more logical. I for one can't wait and will likely be one of the first adopters.

Although I am definitely afraid of the format war. I am really hoping that we will have universal players like we do for SACD and DVD-A. Otherwise, 2 players will be ridiculous. I currently only have a DVD-A capable player and it pisses me off royally.

Also, I am afraid of the fact that my HDTV only has component video in. It is likely that I will not even be able to recieve the HD signal from these players because of DVI and HDMI. So the upgrade may need to include a new TV as well, which is pretty much impossible.
