Hadn't seen that one, but it doesn't surprise me, it was inevitable.  
Of course they will eventually "support some of the HD DVD format's  
online interactivity features".

I'm trying to dig up the article that said such a device was  
"impossible", I laughed when I read it at the time as I knew it would  
happen.

Now we just wait for the price to come down. I remember paying around  
$1000 for my first CD recorder, and that was a 1X device for which  
the blanks were around $5/each (and that was in 1989 dollars) :-)  
(SCSI of course).
