True, true, true. There is little programming right now. Mainly big events and some prime time shows. However, expect more programming every year. I don't know if paying a couple of grand now on an NTSC set that will be obsolete in 5 years is a smart move if a TV set lasts about 10 years and then spend some more down the pike. May end up costing a lot more in the long run and the picture quality is very nice with standard NTSC on a DTV set. If he can hold out till next year like Victor Khomenko stated earlier, that would be the best way to go. However, if he can't wait, I would lean towards a DTV, like a Mitsubishi set. If he has HBO, he can see some movies in DTV and enjoy what little programming there is now and see more and more shows in the coming years.
