No, it's not true. From what I've heard, those movies are actually owned by LucasFilm and they're notorious for waiting a long, long, long time before adopting a new format. Amazon has the exact same listing.
That Target link (to a future HD DVD "Indiana Jones" Trilogy) - that's just a "header" or "place card" on their site and nothing more (yet).
Amazon has been doing this as well for both HD disc formats since last summer; you can find these not-yet-released titles by consistently clicking on page after page of the "master list", and eventually you will see the "headers" for titles that you can't purchase at this time.
Don't expect HD DVD of the Indiana Jones movies until next summer/winter at the earliest, timed for the 4th movie coming to theaters next summer, and probably around a new Special Edition standard DVD release as well.

I rummaged through the Target website, since I never go to that stupid store, and look what I found. Is it true?!!??!

It looks like overall the HD-DVD has less in stock in all of the pictures. Perhaps Sony is buying them out.

No title can be expected until a formal announcement is made by the resulting studio, and usually you will find an annoucement shortly afterwards at http://www.highdefdigest.com/ or http://www.dvdtown.com/
