So the Sanyo Xacti HD1 is for real as it is set to debut at CES. This camera can shoot 720p, 16:9 widescreen video and still pictures with a 5.36 megapixel on a standard SD card. WOW!! And here is the kicker, it will be available in March for $800. "The HD1 can record over 21 minutes of 720p HD video on a 1-Gigabyte SD card or over 42 minutes on a 2-Gigabyte card. Alternatively, HD1 users can select to record in Standard Definition mode (640 x 480 pixels at 30fps progressive) for up to two hours on a 2-Gigabyte SD card. Users can easily switch between high-definition and standard-definition recording modes by simply pressing the gHD/Normh button located on display side of the camera body." If no other company offers anything similar around that date, I am getting myself one of these. HD at that price is simply a killer product, I hope it looks half way decent.
