Can't wait to see how much that lead grows over the next 2-3 months.

The article also says that Blu-ray sold more copies of The Departed than HD-DVD. These types of direct comparison numbers are really starting to drive home the point of Blu-ray being the future.

The Amazon top 100 sales figures really drive home this point. There are 8 Blu-ray's in the top 100 sales charts and not a single HD-DVD.

Casino Royale #15
Black Hawk Down #34
Kingdom of Heaven #39
X-Men #48
The Departed #59
Kng Fu Hustle #72
Ice Age:The Meltdown #85
The Fifth Element #92

The sharp rise in these sales is clearly due in to the Amazon sale. However Casino Royale and The Departed are clearly not a part of that, and HDUD's Departed version is nowhere to be seen on the list.
