In fairness to Blu--Ray there is some confusion about this story:

Update: Pull back the reigns HD DVD fanboys, Akihabara now says that
they've made a "huge mistake" with their translation: the original
source called it "藍光HD-DVD and 藍光 means Blu-RAY." In other words, Blu-
ray HD DVD. Huh? Word to the wise: since both formats use blue lasers,
it's best to wait for an English press release before either camp
celebrates.

Pioneer is also planning on a $300 Blu-Ray PC drive:
