Not only does this offer apply to the entry-level HD-A3, there is a note on the offer page which includes the up-level HD-A30 and HD-A35 while supplies last. The HD-A30 adds 1080p output at 24 frames per second at a price of $311.67 ($400 list). The HD-A35 at $405.16 ($500 list) adds analog outputs and high bitrate audio streaming across HDMI, deep color support (when/if that becomes part of the HD DVD spec).
