HD DVD nearing the half million mark in standalone player sales? {Engadget HD}

No one is saying that you don't know that your ps3 has blu ray capability or that you know how to use it. Heck, probably everyone that goes to Engadget HD knows that their ps3 is blu-ray capable and is hooked up to some sort of hidef display. Also, people in the blu-ray section buying blu-ray movies are probably aware that their ps3 is blu-ray capable... just a guess.
We're saying that according to market research, 60% of people who have a ps3 are not aware that it's bluray movie capable. Sony does have a nice new advertising push so maybe that will make more people aware... but you have to have someone who has a ps3, is aware their ps3 plays bluray movies, has an HD capable set hooked up to their ps3 AND wants to spend the extra money for the blu ray version of a movie.
HD DVD nearing the half million mark in standalone player sales? {Engadget HD}
Nov 12th 2007 8:54PM Thank god that 500,000 number is neilson numbers and not world wide. According to vgchartz (which neilson states is a little high) there are 2.26 million ps3s... so with the 40% who even know are 904,000 or so.
Now you have to figure that of those who know about the capability, not even that many will use it as a blu-ray player. So, according to your previous comparison:
904,000 > 700K yes... but all 700K are using their hd dvd drives solely for movies.
