#1 - At least with the HD-DVD player, the decoder is in the player itself and it sends the decoded bitstream to the receiver to simply play. Therefore, it doesn't need HDMI 1.3 because the stream is already decoded.

You only need 1.3 if the stream is to be decoded in the receiver - and no receiver currently supports them yet.

#2 - I have the Pioneer Elite 74 (last year's model - the 84 is this year's model). It works great and the price is about $1,500.
