My question is one I had from my cousins who have a decent TV antenna and that is, what can they do to their TV, is there a gadget to buy to make their TV work or must they buy a new one? :) I told them it is likely a gadget, but let me know what you all think.

As for the size they make large LCD TV's and Large plasma TV's. As for the picture goes unless you have a trained eye or 20 20 or better vision to tell the difference.

I'm one of those who doesn't have that newfangled TV either. Even David Letterman joked that he didn't also. I can't see that they will suddenly drop in price once the regular signal goes blank. If anything I would think that the price would go up because the store could take advantage of the fact that we are forced to buy that new set. I looked at them in the store, and for the life of me I can't see any sense of it. The picture in the store didn't look any better than mine, and it was harder to look at because the screen was so squatty, LOL. It seems like a computer program could easily be made to do the conversion of analog to digital. All one would need in addition to that would be a tuner. I know that they have analog tuners now for computers. Seems like they could make a digital one as well. Probably the government will/have made a law against this though, just like it's against the law to buy medicine in Canada and bring it over the border.
