This weekend, I found
a 30PW633R Philips 30 inch 16:9 'widescreen' TV for $519.00 at a =
national retailer
that is NOT E/HDTV compatible.=20
It only accepts component, S-video and composite 525:59.94 inputs,
does not have a line doubler and will not accept 480p through the =
component input.
I would liek to have been there when the marketing for this one was =
discussed.

I think you will find that virtually all 27-inch, 32-inch, and 36-inch=20
TV sets that are said to be HDTV have 4:3 screens. There is also a fair =
number of larger HDTV sets with 4:3 screens. The Consumer Electronics=20
Association's definition of an HDTV set does NOT preclude a 4:3 screen.
I think you will also find quite a few plasma TVs in this country that=20
are 16:9 but only SDTV. In Europe and Japan, you will find huge numbers =
of 16:9 SDTV sets.
TTFN,
