It's pretty easy for me to wait for a new piece because I don't have any HD equipment. That being said, I plan on upgrading nearly everything next year.

Right now I'm just starting to see products that support HDMI 1.3 and they're all rather expensive. Many products say they support HDMI, but they don't say which version - you really have to dig around.

I think mid-2008 will be a prime time to purchase HD equipment. Most manufactures will have products supporting HDMI 1.3 and many will have 2nd or 3rd generation products just entering the market so competition for consumers will be high, which will drive prices down. At least that's what I hope will happen.
