RE: HD DVD's only winning strategy is soliciting mass market acceptance based on "cheap" hardware.

Actually, the bottom of the line HD DVD players offer quite a few features-one of the advantage of a standardized format. Both Wally World and Best Buy have placed orders for OEM $199 players. In Q4, there will be 5 manufacturers of HD DVD players, not just Toshiba. There will be a range of players from $199 to over $1000, all of which will do things that BD has only promised.
