Too bad DivX had to buy the deal. See DIVX's 2007 10-K form ...
A9 Compact for me as I'm a MCS guy. Besides, the tri-spoke wheels are killer
I think Nfinity needs to learn to read:

"“People have been waiting weeks for Sony players, but it should get better later in the summer,” said Rick Souder, executive VP of merchandise at Crutchfield. “In August, it will be the first time that Blu-ray overtakes [standard DVD] sales for us on a unit basis.”

For some time, revenue on relatively higher-priced BD set-tops has trumped standard DVD at Crutchfield. Currently, the dollar split is 60% Blu-ray and 40% standard."

BD has been higher on a revenue basis for some time - see quoted dollar split - for the reason you indicate. The reference to outselling is very explicitly on a unit basis. All from Crutchfield, a retailer with enough volume for these quotes to be potentially meaningful.

To included computer DVD drives you'd want to include computer bd drives. The correct offset for PS3's would be DVD-based game consoles (ie. 360, PS2, etc.).

The saturation point comment is the most spot on, BD passing DVD on player unit per month basis is nice, but not that interesting, no one needs another DVD player anymore (we all probably have 3+ in our households). The question is installed base of DVD vs BD, vs interest in downloadable content.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I have a MacBook Pro and an Xbox 360 and I would like to get a 20- to 24-inch display that will support both devices. The speakers should be inbuilt, or there should be an aux out on the display to hook up external speakers. Help! Please!"
