Don't believe it for a second, they have been saying it for years and look what happened to Bladerunner. Beside the number who has viewed this thread shows me how many people are interested.

2001 was a recent revelation... I think the only rumors came out only a month or two until it was mentioned in a Home Theater Forum chat by WB reps. It's on the schedule anyways for September since it'll be a simultaneous HD-DVD and standard DVD release. They're also doing new editions of The Shining, Eyes Wide Shut, and A Clockwork Orange. All new 16x9 remasters (ACO is 1.66:1 16x9) and EWS will be the uncut European version. Malcolm McDowell recorded a commentary for Clockwork.
Blade Runner is a totally different issue because WB doesn't have 100% control over it like 2001: A Space Odyssey.
