Yea the release was pushed back to March I believe.

Blu Steel- If you have ever paid any attention to Ian's dialogue on the FS forums he stated his concern about lower sales of catalog titles. For a better prespective a new release is selling around 1 million copies now and catalog titles are lucky to get a 1/4 of that.(probably lower, I have never followed Catalog numbers) Even big titles like LOTR, Gladiator, etc create buzz, however their sales numbers are lack in the final tally. FS as a company, looks at the big picture and sees that SteelBook draws sales however most would buy blu-ray in any package(I dont have internal numbers so this is a very educated guess)
