BSG Razor will (apparently not be on) HD DVD!
Yay! Just saw this on the Digital Bits today. Now if they can get out Season 3 in HD Universal has another sale from me.
And Universal has finally announced the extras that you'll find on their DVD release of the Battlestar Galactica: Razor - Unrated Extended Edition on 11/4. You'll get deleted scenes, audio commentary with series creators David Eick and Ron Moore, 2 featurettes (The Look of Battlestar Galactica and My Favorite Episode So Far), and an exclusive preview of Season Four, which starts on Sci-Fi in January. The good news for you HD-DVD fans is that Razor will be released on that format as well on 11/4 (no details on extras are available yet, but it's reasonable to assume that at least all of the DVD extras will be included). Also, for ALL you Battlestar fans, if you visit this link at Sci-Fi.com starting tomorrow, you'll be able to vote for your favorite of three different DVD covers for the release. The one selected by the majority of fans will be used on 11/4.

The Bits made a bit of a mistake on the date. This was already announced for 12/4, not 11/4, which is a Sunday. "Razor" doesn't even air until 11/24.
I suspect Season 3 will be released the same day, with "Razor" available separately and as part of the Season 3 box set. One indicator of this is, if you find the listing for "Razor" on BestBuy.com, the list price is given as $69.99 for the regular DVD. I suspect that's the list price for Season 3.

Sorry about that, folks.

I held off buying season 2 because they split it into 2 parts and charged the price of a regular season box for each. I haven't watched more than 2 episodes of season 3 because I want it in HD, but I won't be paying $159.95 or anything close for a single season.

Amazon has pre-orders for Season 1 on HD-DVD. Could it be that someone is actually releasing the first season of a show first? 
It will be mine.

Beginning Friday, fans will be able to go and register at www.battlestarevent.com to be able to see the movie in the following cities:
Los Angeles, New York/New Jersey, San Francisco, Dallas, Boston, Philadelphia, Seattle, and Chicago.
The hell with you, Des Moines! Straight. To. Hell.
Admission is free, but those who want to see “Razor” at a movie theater again, you must first register at the site www.battlestarevent.com. The site will not go live until Friday. Repeat: The site will not go live until Friday. Seat registrations will be given away first-come, first-serve.
