Sorry, I can't quote any numbers or hard facts, only my own opinion
picked up from hanging out on AVS and from shopping for a low end LCD
when my projector bulb popped a few months ago.
But I can say that, at the low end, both Target's Olevia and Walmart's
Vizio newer models all seem to support clear QAM. I ended up with a
Vizio and can say it has no problems with it on Cox. And I think
Vizio is now something like the 2nd best selling LCD brand now.
Until the sparsity of 'hard facts' is corrected I'm going to stick
with my previous opinion that clear QAM support will become an
expected option in most sets going forward. And I also think true2way
has some momentum building.

While clear QAM support may exist in many new receivers, what is it good
for?
Apparently you can see some broadcast re-transmissions, but presumably
you could get them with an antenna. It is my understanding that
virtually all digital cable content is encrypted...
Is this what most people are finding?
