What I'll be most interested in is to see if there's an inexpensive digital set top box that gets released sometime in the next year or two.
Now that new TVs have the ATSC tuner built in, it seems harder and harder for me to find a set top box to go with my HDTV ready TV. The ones that I can find all seem to be in the $200+ price range. If I can just get a new TV with the tuner built in for that price, I'm more likely to do that.
This just brings up the next stage. I'd rather that the government stepped up to help us poor slobs get rid of our old electronics without a surreptitious trip to a neighborhood dumpster, or without paying outrageous fees.
