Microsoft issued a press release today at Comic Con.

Here's an excerpt:

SAN DIEGO — July 26, 2007 — Today at Comic-Con International 2007, Microsoft Corp. announced it will lower the price of the popular Xbox 360™ HD DVD Player from $199 to $179 ERP (United States only) starting Aug. 1, 2007, and will add five free HD DVD movies for anyone purchasing an Xbox 360 HD DVD Player between Aug. 1 and Sept. 30.

The 5 free HD-DVD's will be available via a mail-in offer under Toshiba's "The Perfect Offer". Here's another excerpt from the press release:

In addition to the price drop, Microsoft is extending Toshiba’s highly successful “Perfect Offer” of five free HD DVD discs to Xbox 360 consumers. Previously exclusive to Toshiba HD DVD Players, with the purchase of an Xbox 360 HD DVD Player at the new low price of $179 ERP, consumers can choose five HD DVD titles for free from a selection of 15 popular titles through a mail-in offer. With a retail value of over $140 (U.S.), this promotion makes the Xbox 360 HD DVD Player one of the most compelling offerings for consumers looking to make the leap into HD this holiday season.

If you've been contemplating picking-up the Xbox 360 HD-DVD add-on, go ahead and contemplate for another week.

Bah. Read the fine print. 8-10 weeks processing. I'd rather buy the damn things than wait over 2 months for them. Mail-in offers/rebates suck. period. So do warrenties for that matter, but at least computer hardware, Xboxes, etc only have a week or two turnaround time.
