Apple has HD-DVD authoring tools. I doubt they move from their current neutral stance. Sure Steve Jobs gladhanded the Sony exec on stage at Macworld but then again Steve's a marketer and will say just about anything to ride the hype wave.
You asked in another thread where you had been misleading. I would suggest this is one place. You state "Apple has HD-DVD authoring tools." I have never seen nor heard of such tools. Also you imply Apple does not have Blu-ray authoring tools which it has explicitly stated it will support in both hardware and software (including APIs).

It's not just Jobs "glandhanding" a Sony exec on stage (in fact neither HD-DVD nor Blu-ray came up when they were on stage together at Macworld). Apple has issued stand alone press releases about supporting Blu-ray Disk. I have never seen any stand alone press releases from Apple claiming specific support for HD-DVD.

I think this is your answer as to whom has been misleading who.
