Yes, all WB titles released on both formats, until they stop HDDVD releases June 1st, will have a 3 week delay, however, I think "Jesse James" is a 6 week delay. This is their release strategy for HDDVD until they stop production. The reasoning is that by giving blu-ray a 3 week (or more) head start, they will give their chosen format greater visibility but still, by releasing HDDVD later, fulfill their obligation to HDDVD until June 1st.
