It's true. There are a few weinstein titles on HD-DVD only. The only one I can think of at the moment is Lucky Number Slevin (which I'm dying for on Blu).

They also technically never went Neutral. They simply stopped releasing HD-DVDs because they couldn't afford it.

I've heard rumours that they contacted the BDA about releasing on Blu, but apparently wanted far too much 'help' in doing so.
