After Warner's announcement the shocked HD DVD community cancelled they CES press meet and said
Based on the timing of the Warner Home Video announcement today, we have decided to postpone our CES 2008 press conference scheduled for Sunday, January 6th at 8:30 PM in the Wynn Hotel. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We are currently discussing the potential impact of this announcement with the other HD DVD partner companies and evaluating next steps.
Looks like HD DVD community is going to postpone the conference forever. This is a happy news to all consumers (other than HD DVD player owners) as soon the format war is going to end.
