Your statements are ridiculous. The poll specifically included the PS3 in the hi-rez category ("Few report owning Blu-ray disc players (4%), Sony PlayStation 3 (5%), HD DVD players (6%) and the HD-DVD drive for the Xbox 360 (1% have external drive while 9% have an Xbox 360").
The poll even asked respondents if they planned to buy a "Sony PlayStation 3 which plays Blu-ray discs and Internet connectivity..." for crying out loud!
The PS3 can indeed play Blu-ray movies (and despite your assertion, that fact was clearly reflected in the poll questions), but its primary purpose is as a gaming console, and that is its primary target market. That's how most people think of it. When I think of a "Blu-ray disc player," I think of something like the Sony BDP-S300, which is targeted specifically at the Blu-ray video market. That's how most people think of it.
The PS3 deserves its own category, just like the other gaming consoles, which the poll properly reflected.
If the poll did not allow respondents to select more than one category of devices owned, your position would hold water, but that is not the case. You may not like the results, but you have yet to mount any sort of cogent argument against them.
