    Does anybody know if and when Hollywood movies will come out for WMV HD? Right now there are quite a few movies out but they're mostly the discovery channel type movies. Or will we have to wait for external blu-ray or hd dvd players to experience HD movies on our notebooks?

    You can get HDTV on your notebook (http://www.usbhdtv.com) and at least get the broadcast networks in hidef, but otherwise, I suspect we'll have to wait for HD DVDs (next year?). With DVD burner prices so low I'd expect manufacturers to want to move to HD ASAP.
