I agree, especially as a Win Mobile 7 Sony phone will allow you to log into both Live and PSN, but probably not at the same time. Oh and it won't be of much benefit as Microsoft can gain the use of HD-DVD quite cheaply if they wanted to, Sony doesn't have the monopoly on high density disc formats and thats ignoring the fact that they control less than 1/3rd of Blu Ray so making dicks of themselves over discs wouldn't be in their best interest.

the only problem is Toshiba is an was the only one making the HD DVD optical drive's, Now Even Toshiba is making Blu-Ray optical drive's. yes It does not mean Microsoft could not get them made again, but I doubt that anyway with statement's like this, I think they will still stick with DVD 9 if they have any physical disc format at all.

250GB Xbox 360 'Super Elite' models are now available in bundles with games such as Final Fantasy XIII and Forza 3.

Microsoft has alway's stated Digital distribution is it. I do not think Microsoft is going to change that IDEA even for the next Xbox.

The chinese format based upon HD-DVD is alive and well. They would have all the cheap optical drives they could ever want and they would not have to support two laser assemblies as HD-DVD optics is compatible with DVD whereas a Blu Ray drive must maintain two laser assemblies.
