I've heard the Picture in picture commentary stuff was an issue, if that was the case then profile 1.1 fixes the problem and it wont be long now.

Since WB has released many movies on Blu-ray w/o the picture in picture commentary track, I doubt that this is the reason Batman, Matrix, and V were postponed.
It makes sense that WB leaned HD DVD with Nickerson et al. But once BD started dominating (xmas lats year) they needed to change the tune. thus, WB releases with lack of features......still using the ime excuse for the past Nickerson low blows.

Now with Bewkes stepping up and 1.1 here id have to guess that Batman is strictly marketing and will be tied to the dark knight and the other will be announced at CES.
