[opendtv] Re: ATSC STBs

There are ATSC DVCR's (e.g $1000 JVC HM-DT100U) and HD-PVR's (e.g. $2000 
HTPC).....which are prohibitively expensive .....might as well lease a Cable 
(or SAT) HD-PVR and get 200+ channels....

NTSC STB's really for sale.  All 
the NTSC TV's are integrated analog sets.  And cheap VCR's became the 
standard NTSC STB's long ago.

But there also don't seem to be any ATSC VCR's or PVR's.  And Congress, 
FCC, etc. do not seem to be worrying much that those functions will 
therefore become unavailable in 2009.
