In Reply to: Is HDTV *really* going to happen by 06!? posted by Owen Meany on February 13, 2002 at 16:35:25:
Your delema is what technology to purchase to get future compatability. I constantly suffer through this delema with my PCs (and I thought my EISA/VLB 486DX33 PC would be passed down to my grandchildren).Don't attempt to get a TV today that will suit your HDTV needs in 2006. By the time HDTV is common place, today's technologies will be obsolete.
DVD players have been mainstream for what 5 years, and already we a change - progressive scan. Damn, I need a new DVD player and TV now. However, even with progressive scan, DVD players sill crank out an analog, 480i/p signal. DVD players are ripe for a change, but they can't change without a matching change in television sets.
I can't predict the future, but I can predict that analog connections will not live long in this HDTV world that you long for.
Good luck.
