The instructions were to check the video at 1:12 min. Can't do it at work at the moment, but I was hoping someone can confirm this.

yea, the guy in the video said that walmart stores will not sell players... but online still will? wierd

Would be a serious death blow, but I would expect more press on this if true. I'm guessing they are confusing Walmart with Target who are already Blu exclusive in stores.

I believe this has been choked up to him mistaking target for walmart.

that would be asbsolutely great if its true! i work at walmart in my town in the electronics dept and we dont have any blu-ray players at all besides the ps3 and we sell the toshiba hd-a3 and the hd-a1 or whatever they are called. im always bummed when people ask me if we have any standalone blu players cuz i always have to tell them no, but if what CNN is saying is true i may see a swing in the products we carry? i will ask tomorrow and see if anybody at my store can confirm it and i will report back to everybody on this thread alright?
