I'm surprised "Planet Earth" was not listed. I saw that on HDTV and it was amazing.

How can they have these awards when more HD titles are coming before the end of the year?

I'm not quite sure how credible these awards can be. Some of the winners just seem suspect.
How is it that the Blu-ray version of 300 won Best Title, yet the HD DVD version won best Bonus Feature. If all things are equal (sound/picture and other features) but the HD DVD version adds a Best Feature that the Blu-ray version doesn't have, then shouldn't the HD DVD version win Best Title by logical default?
