As the market solidifies on BR, competition will increase, cheap Asian players will come on the market, and Wal-Mart will aggressively start selling them. The prices will be down to $150 soon.

Very true, now that the market has begun to shift...by Christmas...they will be down in the less then 150 range.

Another note on the subject. The technology on both systems is nearly identical to the end user.
One is not really any better than the other.

But having said that, I find the Blu-Ray packaging to be much more pleasing to the eye than it's HD-DVD competitor. There is something very engaging about those blue boxes the dvd comes in. ANd just the term, BLU-RAY sounds much cooler than HD-DVD..

So in terms of branding, BLU-RAY is definitely the winner in my book.
