So, now you're asserting that $50-$70 convrter boxes have been available for
years and the NAB didn't know about it.

Here's something to ponder: the NAB knows more about marketing than do you.
They are talking about $50 to $70 converter boxes; you hare talking about
more expensive boxes that you've previously seen.

Please, provide us with a current link to  $50 to $70 converter box.  Much
easier to find one in the plus $200 price point.

Gee, this can be fun.

But, bug-checking is time-consuming.

Strange.

The NAB seems unaware of the fact that DTT STBs have been around for
many years already. They are telling us to wait for 2008.

"DTV converter boxes will be available for purchase in early 2008, and
are expected to cost between $50 and $70."

How about saying, "Or you can buy an HDTV box now, which offers HD
quality, but at a higher price?"
