How long before anyone thinks we'll see these? I've heard rumors on computer forums but haven't seen any official news from anyone.

I wonder what the price will be and on what interface? SATA? SATA-II?

I'm really interested in getting one of these considering this would be as future proof in media as you could get.

This only plays HD DVD / Blu-ray in your computer, but has DVD+RW capabilities.

Wow, thanks for the link. Where the hell have I been...

That isn't that bad of a price if it performs at the same level as the stand alone players.

I have a 8800GT (G92) so my HD Decoding is excellent and my BenQ HD 24" looks amazing.

This might be a XMas purchase for me.
