Warner has announced HD releases of "many of the Harry Potter films timed to the release of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix".
That means, if nothing else, better source material available. We should probably expect the OAR, and since there are no details yet, we can't say for sure they will be the theatrical cuts.
Let us evaluate:
-That's a really short turnover. 25 days to release and yet they are not yet listed on Amazon.com.
-I also recall hearing that the first few films have had DVD production stopped the beginning of this year. (Does anyone else remember that or am I crazy?)
This is starting to smell like secret surprise release, but first we want to clear the shelves of the old editions.

I do remember hearing about them pulling the dvd's off the shelves and at the time it was speculated this was to allow for HD releases of all the films, I would imagine these will be the theatrical cuts in OAR. I personally suspect they will release extended editions only after the 7th film is released, although I assume that seamless branching is easier on HD media so it's possible one day we'll have two versions in one.
