Cable HDTV Not Ready For Primetime?

A reader writes: "Shelly Palmer head of the New York Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Advanced Media committee and the man that gave us the singing cats in the meow mix ads has posted a very entertaining article on his blog about finally getting a Scientific Atlanta SA8000HD High Definition, DVR-enabled cable boxes from Time Warner Cable in Manhattan, his adventures getting it to work, and its less than stellar performance."

[Le Marteau]

This guy spends $10K in the hopes of getting a 'pretty picture"?

That is obscene. I hope there is a Pearly Gates, and when he gets up there, St. Peter is a cat, and St. Peter tells him how many kitties lives he could have saved and made so much better for that wasted 10K.

For the kitties! Think of the kitties!
