Apple has added HD movies to the US iTunes store, including action flicks “Transporter 3,” “Bangkok Dangerous” and “The Spirit.”   HD versions cost five dollars more to buy ($14.99 regular, $19.99 HD) but rentals cost the same as regular flicks, $3.99. HD purchases also come with an iPod/iPhone compatible standard def version for viewing on smaller screens.

Upcoming titles available for pre-order on iTunes include “Quantum of Solace” and “Twilight.”

    I wonder if they’ll have an ‘upgrade’ option?

    they don’t for tv shows so I’m thinking no. also be careful before buying to make sure they will work for you. especially if you are using an external display. there are reports of HDCP issues with non display port external displays
