Re: Absolutely

Cable Boxes scale to your highest (or lowest) resolution. Since OTA channels now broadcast the Tonight show in 16:9 1080i resolutions are people not going to be able to watch it if they don't get a HDTV? I assume the Digital Converter boxes are going to scale the output and is what justifies the $40-80+ cost.

I think what I'm trying to say is at what point will there cease to be a HD and NON-HD version of a channel.
When everyone has an HD TV?
