"Not available in all stores." -- WTF?? -- of course, Walmart won't tell you which stores they'll be in. Also "While quantities last." Geez. Awesome deal if you can find it.HT/2-channel Rig: Sony 50 LCD TV; Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player; Emotiva LMC-1 pre/pro; Rogue Audio M-120 monoblocks (modded); Placette RVC; Emotiva LPA-1 amp; Bada HD-22 tube CDP (modded); VMPS Tower II SE (fronts); DIY Clearwave Dynamic 4CC (center); Wharfedale Opus Tri-Surrounds (rear); and VMPS 215 sub
"God grooves with tubes." -
While quantities last is a standard disclaimer so they don't have to issue rainchecks once they run out. Walmart is also running a tv commercial dedicated just to HD DVD, so I would imagine most all will have them.
HD DVD's at Walmart for $14.87:
Clerks 2
Lucky # S7even
Pulse
Failure to Launch
4 Brothers
Italian Job
Sleepy Hollow
Casino
12 Monkeys
Backdraft
Big Lebowski
Sea Biscuit
Alexander Revisted
Blood Diamond
Full Metal Jacket
The Last Samurai
Swordfish

Hmm, they must have updated the web-site. When I go to the link it doesn't list the HD-DVD player on sale.

Click on the image of the item and you can put in your zip code to find stores near you. It shows availability, too. -
BB and CC aren't going to price-match...
-
For that price, I'll add a third HD-DVD player if I can find one tomorrow. I need something in the bedroom and might as well be HD.
-
This might be what I've been looking for to hop on the hi-def bandwagon. For $100, how can you go wrong?
Despite Blu-Ray's claims of success, HD-DVD certainly isn't making it easy for them.Lovin that music year after year.

man, I don't think they have any at the Wal Mart near me.
If anyone stockpiles and has an extra to sell, I'd be willing to buy one or two and pay for shipping. They are really light, so I'm sure shipping would be about $10 or so each.Stereo Rig: Hales Revelation 3, Musical Fidelity CD-Pre 24, Forte Model 3 amp, Lexicon RT-10 SACD, MMF-5 w/speedbox, Forte Model 2 Phono Pre, Cardas Crosslink, APC H15, URC MX-950, Lovan Stand

As much as I hate plastic components, I may have to pick one up, with the 5 free HD dvd's it's a steal.
