I ask this because I know that the X1000 series can run it, and that it is a big advantage for ATI and I always hear about it. But my X800 XL isn't in the X1000 series, and yet, I can play HL2: Episode 1 with both HDR and AA! So do ATI cards that aren't in the X1000 series support both HDR and AA simultaneously?

This is probably just some paranoid, anxious thought I just had, but hey, it would be awesome to have HDR and AA at the same time instead of sacrificing one for the other.
I wouldn't count on it. I had an X800XT that would do both HDR and AA at the same time for HL2. However it would not do both in Oblivion. If AA is even available in SH4 (it's entirely up in the air from what I've read, and the developers haven't squashed any of the rumors), the only real safe bet would be either a X1000 series or Nvidia's 8800 series.
