Hilarious! After being gone from the list for awhile, I return to find the same 
old topics and arguments.
 

Funny how little has changed in ATSC-land. Hey, maybe the 6th gen chips will do 
the trick! When that incremental improvement turns out to be not quite enough, 
there will be the promises of 7th generation. The better mousetrap that will do 
the job is always just around the corner, by definition.

 

And Congress is actually proposing to close the loophole on NTSC shut-off! 
Maybe those 6th or 7th gen chips will be under $5 by the time NTSC goes dark, 
so a working $45 STB can be made available here in 2007 or 2008 - just like 
they had in the U.K. in 2004.
