Several readers have written in to note that President-elect Barack Obama is urging Congress to delay the digital TV transition. This comes just a week after the government's program to subsidize digital converters ran out of money, forcing those interested in digital transition coupons to sign onto a waiting list. According to Obama, there is "insufficient support" for the problems consumers can expect to encounter after the February 17 switchover. The Obama camp also called funds for the switchover "woefully inadequate." Of course a delay in the transition could mean a delay in LTE 4G services.
