Re: HDTV at this point

It is cool to be the first one on your block to own a new toy BUT you also get to be the Beta test subject and you pay heavily for the chance to do so. HDTV is at the same point color was in the '60s. Few stations were broadcasting in color and even fewer people had color tv. It took a long time for color tv to become common place. HDTV is in the same boat as color tv was. While the change may come faster, right now only a few cities are broadcasting HDTV signals, you need an antenna, (no cable yet) and few people have the TV set to receive the signal. I want the upgraded picture that HDTV can offer, but I will wait until it becomes common place.
