As well as upscaling any input to 1080i to the component output it will also upscale any input to 1080p and output it via HDMI.

While it does not have HDMI 1.3 it will accept 8 channel PCM via HDMI so if you have a decoder for Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD in you HD DVD or BD player you will get the lossless audio.

I can not wait to get my unit next week. It ships on Sep 18th in Australia :)

Apples DVD Studio Pro does support creating HD DVD discs. DVDSP v4.0.2 was compliant with 0.9 HD Spec and v4.0.3 was updated to the 1.0 spec. The software only supports a subset of the full spec, eg. no iHD support, but can create compliant HD DVD discs on standard DVD R media.
Addex is correct the large displays use a dual-link DVI cable to carry the extra information. Dual-link can be supported on a HDMI type B connector.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I need help! I want a small pocket camcorder but I'm not sure which one to get. I don't want to fall into the hype of the Flip because I worry two hours won't be enough. What should I be looking for when considering a small camcorder and where can I get a good quality one with expandable memory? Thanks!"
