    Apart from the sorts of people who have to ride the technology wave no matter what the expense. They'll be watching TV on their Trans-Dimensional Hyper-View CrystalVision Boxes* and sneering at the inferior viewing quality of us lamers with HD-TV.

    It's a good thing that it's much more than a slight improvement.

    I'd wait too if I wasn't in the market for a TV anyway.

    Besides that, bratland doesn't sound like it has much HD programming anyway which is another reason to wait.

    It's better to spend another $300 for the next graphics card with an incremental improvement of 10 points in the latest 3D benchmark.

    Hoi, it's only about £1,000 ($27,000) to get a wee bit better picture on the telly.

    That must be well worth it, unless of course you are so sad that you don't take watching your telly that seriously.
    I hear that HDTV has magical-like powers, it can take a rubbish film like Braveheart and the HD turns it into an accurate historical documentary featuring superb portrayals of the characters by talented actors and some rampant yet tasteful lesbian scenes.

    I wrote out a really good reply to this post but my stupid laptop closed my browser. Anyhow, you'll have to imagine your own reply because I have forgotten what I wrote. I did use the word 'innovation' if that helps any.

    ...me too.

    By that time I should actually be able to afford a Blu-Ray burner.

    I do love how people get pissed that companies want to copy protect their shit.
