    there's not enough HD stuff being broadcast yet to warrant the expensive display I'd need.

    This is exactly the kind of attitude that holds back technological progress in HDTV. I mean, without an audience, how can we expect broadcasters to pony up the dough required to send HDTV signals. The advertisers won't want to pay the premiums for HDTV slots that nobody watches!

    It's up to the general public to adopt technology, or important innovations (like wasting time with TV) will never happen!!!
