True. In fact, it's lower, because the plug-&-play agreement requires DTT
reception.
BUT
There are no mandatory dates associated with the plug-&-play agreement. By
March 1 of next year, the tuner mandate requires 100% of all tuner-equipped TVs
25-inch and up built or imported into the U.S. to have DTT reception circuitry.
That includes the under-$100 25-inch TVs I find advertised periodically.
TTFN,
Mark
