Yes, there’s a screencap of the preview teasers, and Up is there, along with Pinocchio, Tinker Bell, Caspian, and other disney stuff.

and there is also the Up poster printed on the last page of the booklet:

Love the menu screens. They are the POVs of each robot from the movie (and one being the humans’ computer from their hoverchair).
And the packaging, though cluttered, is beautiful.
This is awesome! 
Can’t wait to see some Blu-ray reviews. This should get 5/5 rating in every aspect (movie itself, audio and video quality, bonus features). Previous Pixar Blu-ray releases are already some of the most acclaimed Blu-ray discs. Wall•E will easily become the best Blu-ray release so far but The Dark Knight might beat it in December.

As the release date gets closer, some online retailers are lowering the prices for the DVD. I was looking around at the normal (not BluRay) DVD, and for instance, the 3-disc version (including the digital copy) is as low as $21.86 as of today. Here are a few links and prices as of today. Standard disclaimer (prices subject to change, I have no vested interest in any of these stores, etc).
Tower Records seems to be the cheapest as of today.
$21.86 for the 3-disc DVD set. Free shipping if order total is at least $25

Amazon is at $22.99 for the 3-disc set. Free shipping if order total is at least $25.

DeepDiscount: $25.76 (including the shipping).

Steelbook: as far as I can see, there will be no steelbook edition this time (maybe because of the different “environmental” packaging used for this release). I looked at Futureshop Canada’s website (they came out with a steelbook Ratatouille last year) and they just have what everyone else does.
As for the comment about possible more extras on a Japanese release, you’ll have to wait quite a while to see, as the movie won’t even come out theatrically in Japan until December (this was probably so it wouldn’t go against Miyazaki’s “Ponyo” movie that came out in the summer). And then the video release would be a few months after that. However it should be noted that there was nothing extra on the Japanese Ratatouille DVD that didn’t come on the US version.
At least the audio commentary track is back (on the DVD release). Making that BluRay-only for Ratatouille was a bad move. Glad to see Disney changed their minds and is including the audio commentaries on the normal DVD as well.
rachelcakes1985’s comment about the PAL (European, etc) releases being sped up, yes, this is because of the different video standard, which causes the pitch to be slightly higher on European DVDs than they were in the original, or on the North American R1 release. Someone posted that for one of the previous Pixar movies (I think it was Cars?) in Germany, they artifically “sped down” the pitch to try to make it match the original, but… don’t think they did that for Ratatouille again. This might not bother most people, but just be aware that if buying the European version, there might be a slight pitch/running-time difference in a PAL release (see previous posts about this in the Ratatouille thread, or wherever they were, I forget now).
Why don’t they just record the film at normal speed with an external device so that it looks the same on all standards?
Ooh, yes please! And they’ve even got some images of the reject robots on the disks! I’m definitely getting the Blu-ray version. 
Thanks for showing us those images, eerik.
I know the industry is trying to differentiate Blu-Ray from DVD’s, but Blu-Ray packaging is hideous. Surely it should be better than DVD as it’s a step up from DVD.
For what it’s worth, I decided to order the Wall-E DVD (normal DVD not BluRay) from Tower.com as well, since they have the 3-disc DVD set for $21.86. Just got an email from Tower saying that it just shipped from its warehouse today, and I should be receiving it shortly. They send by normal (slower) mail, but it’s still 8 days before the official release date, and I suspect I’ll probably receive it in about 5-6 days – still earlier than the official date.
Well, I’ll post on it when it comes.
How did you get WALL-E on Blu-ray when it is not supposed to be released until the 18th?
Bee-E, those pics are not made by me (check the links below them). Reviewers get their disc early.
Thanks for posting those pictures, eerik. That Blu-Ray released looks pretty snazzy, and it’s good to see the Reject Bots get their time in spotlight. Those three Pixar movies are in all different shades of blue on the shelf - cool!
Someone on YT has posted sneak previews to the bonus content on the Blu-Ray release. There are three of them, I’ve provided the links below along with my personal description for each video.
Elbows
The animators discuss why Wall-E has no elbows. That’s actually great thinking on their part, cos a lack of joints meant Wall-E had shorter arms and made him look more infantile and hence “cuter”. Genius. (BTW, does anyone know the second guy with the soul patch? I think he appeared in the Lots of Bots featurette while describing AUTO)
Reason for Bots
Andrew Stanton explains the robots ‘raison d’etre’ on the Axiom. Here we get an insight into the mind of a guy who know what he wants and how to translate that vision to the screen.
Building Worlds from the Sound Up
Ben Burtt finds out an ingenious way to replicate the sound of a laser blast. He (and the film) should so get the Best Sound Editing for the Oscars already, that man’s a wizard!
Those links sound really, really good, thedriveintheatre, and I’m so tempted, but I’m going to wait until the 24th and have a massive WALL-E fest then. But thanks for putting those up! They sound like really cool bonuses.
And here are the first reviews of the Blu-ray release:
High-Def Digest Review
High Def Disc News Review
DVD Beaver Review
Beyond Media Online Review
I have a question about the WALL-E 3 disc special edition. So will the main movie be widescreen or fullscreen? Or will it have both versions of the movie?
I think that there’s only the widescreen version.
eerik: well, well, well… WALL-E seems to be the best Blu-ray so far… like the other Pixar’s BDs were… that’s why we love Pixar…
