Robert at VE mentioned that KONG will be out in August. KONG will be the killer app for HD DVD IMO.

It is frustrating waiting for them (HD DVD). At least they seem to know what they are doing though. Most are worth the wait.mike123abc said:The main problem they have now is that the authoring software is all new and few people know how to use it. Both HD-DVD and BR are in the startup phases now. People are expecting fancy new menus and such, and of course each film has its legal qualifications as to who has say over what the HD-DVD/BR will look like, i.e. the backgrounds (artwork) on the menus, the flow of the menus, etc.
